Barcelona takes the lead to advance to the Champions League semi-finals. Lewandowski calls on teammates to maintain good performance


After goals from Rafinha, Lewandowski and Yamal, Barcelona defeated Dortmund 4-0 in the first leg of the 2024/25 UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, successfully taking the lead in advancing to the Champions League semi-finals. Lewandowski said that the team must maintain its best form and good performance in the second leg.


In the 25th minute, Fermin took a free kick, Pau Kuvarsi headed the ball, and Rafinha scored with a shot, helping Barcelona take the lead 1-0. In the 48th minute of the second half, Rafinha assisted Lewandowski to score, helping Barcelona continue to lead Dortmund 2-0.


In the 66th minute, Fermin made a cross pass in front of the goal, and Lewandowski made a direct low shot to make the score 3-0. In the 77th minute, Yamal received Rafinha's diagonal pass and broke into the penalty area and pushed the ball into the goal, expanding Barcelona's lead to 4-0.


In the end, Barcelona defeated Dortmund from the Bundesliga 4-0 at home.


It is worth mentioning that Polish striker Lewandowski has scored 99 goals in his Barcelona career and is only one step away from the 100-goal milestone.


Lewandowski, 36, said in an interview, "I have scored 99 goals for Barcelona and I am very satisfied with my data. For me, in addition to scoring goals, helping the team is equally important. As a striker, of course you have to always think about scoring goals, but as long as the whole team plays well, it will become easier for me."


"We play as a team and that's the most important thing. Whether it's Fermin, Rafinha or my goal, we're all playing for Barcelona. As long as we have good chemistry and are in good shape, this team has great potential both on and off the pitch."


In addition, Barcelona will face Leganes at home in the next round of La Liga, and then will go away to face Dortmund again in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.


Lewandowski said, "Away against Dortmund, we must play as well as in the first leg, or even better, we must be prepared. This is the Champions League, we have to play in the best condition."
