Lewandowski makes Champions League history.

Lewandowski scored a brace in the win against Newcastle.

Robert Lewandowski became the center of attention when he set a record for scoring against 41 different clubs in the Champions League, surpassing Lionel Messi's milestone of 40.

This historic milestone was achieved by the Polish striker in Barcelona's crushing victory over Newcastle United in the second leg of the round of 16. At home, the La Liga side won convincingly 7-2, thus concluding the two legs with an aggregate score of 8-3.

Barcelona started effectively. Raphinha opened the scoring early, but Newcastle proved hard to beat, with Anthony Elanga scoring two goals to keep the game level. However, the difference lay in the home team's ability to capitalize on their opportunities.

Marc Bernal and Lamine Yamal scored to give Barcelona a lead at halftime. In the second half, the game completely tilted in favor of the Catalan team.
