Barcelona delivered a masterclass performance at home, overwhelming Borussia Dortmund with a 4-0 win in the first leg of their UEFA Champions League quarter-final clash.
The Spanish giants dominated from the outset, with Raphinha opening the scoring by capitalizing on Pau Cubarsí’s flick to register his 12th goal of the European campaign.
The second half saw Robert Lewandowski strike twice against his former club, first with a close-range header and then with a driven low finish to put the result beyond doubt.
Rising star Lamine Yamal capped off the emphatic win by slotting home a swift counter-attack in the 77th minute, virtually sealing Barcelona’s place in the semi-finals and leaving Dortmund with a mountain to climb in the second leg.
