Barcelona Absolutely Crushed Dortmund!
Okay, so you won't believe what happened last night. Barcelona completely demolished Dortmund, 4-0, in the Champions League quarterfinals! It was at the Spotify Camp Nou on April 10th, 2025, and honestly, who saw that coming? I mean, a 4-0 win? It was a total masterclass.
Lewandowski's Revenge?
Robert Lewandowski, playing against his old team, was absolutely on fire. He scored two goals, and it was just… satisfying to watch. You could practically feel the intensity radiating from him. The whole stadium was electric.
A First Half to Remember
Barcelona dominated from the first whistle. They were all over Dortmund, possessing the ball like it was their own personal toy. Raphinha opened the scoring in the 25th minute with a fantastic finish – a real team goal, perfectly executed. Even Dortmund's goalkeeper, Gregor Kobel, was making some incredible saves, but it felt inevitable that more goals were coming.
Goals Galore in the Second Half!
The second half? Let's just say things went from good to spectacular. Lewandowski's first goal was a beauty - a header off a Raphinha cross. Then, boom! Another one in the 66th minute. He was unstoppable! And then, get this… young Lamine Yamal, this kid’s only a teenager, scored the fourth goal in the 77th minute. This kid is incredible; he’s now the highest-scoring player under 18 in Champions League history! Four goals this season! What a talent.
A Huge Advantage, But No Time to Rest
Barcelona's now got a massive 4-0 lead going into the second leg in Dortmund. Even Hansi Flick and Lewandowski themselves know they can't get complacent. It's going to be a different game in Germany, a completely different atmosphere. But still, the confidence in the Barca camp is sky-high.
Dortmund’s got a mountain to climb to turn things around. It's going to take a miracle. A real, honest-to-goodness miracle. This win though, it’s a huge step toward Barcelona reaching the Champions League semi-finals for the first time since 2019. It’s been a long time coming!
The Stars of the Show
Raphinha was brilliant; a goal and two assists. Lewandowski's brace was the stuff of legends. And Yamal? Well, he's just written his name in the history books. The whole team played phenomenally – such cohesive team work, and a display of pure tactical brilliance. They absolutely outclassed Dortmund.
