Raphinha's Hat-Trick Powers Barcelona to 4-1 Victory Over Bayern Munichillustration

Raphinha demonstrated remarkable form on Wednesday, scoring a hat-trick in Barcelona's 4-1 victory against Bayern Munich. This win ended Bayern's six-match winning streak against the Catalan club.

The Brazilian winger opened the scoring early and added another goal before halftime. He completed his hat-trick in the 56th minute, firing a low shot into the corner after receiving a pass from Lamine Yamal. Raphinha now boasts nine goals in 13 appearances for Barcelona this season.

His performance mirrors that of Real Madrid's Junior, who netted three goals in a comeback win over on Tuesday. Both wingers are expected to play key roles in the upcoming El Clasico on Saturday, where Barcelona will face their eternal rivals Real Madrid.

Raphinha expressed satisfaction with the victory, stating, "In my opinion this game could have been a (Champions ) final, to be able to win it in this way, so well, in front of our fans, is quite special and I leave here happy." He further remarked on the significance of the win for the fans, saying, "For the fans, I think it was revenge," reflecting on Bayern's previous dominance in the competition.
