Robert Lewandowski matches Cristiano Ronaldo
Robert Lewandowski mirrored Cristiano Ronaldo’s achievement with a standout performance in Barcelona’s UEFA Champions League demolition of Young Boys.
After a surprising 4-2 La Liga loss to Osasuna, Hansi Flick’s team bounced back with a dominant 5-0 victory over their Swiss opponents on Tuesday, securing their first points of the 2024/25 group stage. Lewandowski opened the scoring just eight minutes in, with Raphinha and Inigo Martinez adding two more goals before halftime.
Lewandowski netted his second early in the second half, and a late own goal by Mohamed Ali Camara sealed a tough night for Young Boys in Catalonia.
In doing so, Barca’s Polish star equaled an accomplishment previously achieved by the competition’s all-time top scorer.
