In contrast to the defeat of "rival" Real Madrid, Barcelona started the quarter-finals of the Champions League 2024-2025 perfectly. The Catalan team surpassed Dortmund in terms of level and class and easily won 4 stars in the first leg.
Full-match statistics show that the home team Barca had 18 shots with 10 on target, controlled the ball up to 61% and had the "Trio" Lewandowski - Raphinha - Yamal scoring 144 goals in all competitions.
After 25 minutes of play, Barca opened the scoring through Raphinha. The Brazilian quickly seized the opportunity to "rob" his teammate Pau Cubarsi of a goal, scoring as the ball slowly rolled from the young centre-back's feet into the net.
Man of the match Lewandowski
With motivation, in the beginning of the second half, coach Hans-Dieter Flick's students continued to dominate the opponent and veteran striker Lewandowski scored two goals in just 18 minutes. In the 48th minute, the Polish striker finished the situation with a header, after Yamal and Raphinha coordinated to create for their teammates.
In the 66th minute, receiving a cross from his teammate, Lewandowski finished with a delicate one-touch to raise the score to 3-0. This was also the 36-year-old striker's 29th goal in 28 matches against Dortmund.
Young talent Lamine Yamal continues to play brilliantly
Finally, after many assists and opportunities for his teammates, young talent Lamine Yamal became the one who decided the final victory for Barcelona. From a counter-attack in the 77th minute, Raphinha "set the table" for his 17-year-old junior to easily score.
The overwhelming 4-star victory in the first leg has created a great advantage for Barca to aim for a ticket to the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. The two teams will play again at Signal Iduna Park on April 16.
On the same day, PSG came from behind to defeat Aston Villa 3-1 at home. The pair's ticket to the Champions League semi-finals will be decided in the rematch at Villa Park on April 16.
