In 2022, Raphinha completed his transfer from Leeds to Barcelona |
Raphinha netted a hat-trick as Barcelona crushed Real Valladolid 7-0 to maintain their perfect start to the La Liga season.
Hansi Flick's team is the only one to win all four of their opening matches and now holds a seven-point lead over defending champions Real Madrid.
Raphinha put Barcelona ahead in the 20th minute at the Olympic Stadium, with striker Robert Lewandowski doubling the lead just four minutes later, marking his fourth goal of the season.
Valladolid managed to keep the scoreline unchanged until stoppage time in the first half, when defender Jules Kounde extended Barcelona's lead by scoring from a corner.
Raphinha added two more goals in quick succession to complete his hat-trick, and new signing Dani Olmo scored the sixth with his second goal for the club.
Substitute Ferran Torres completed the dominant performance from Flick's side before the international break.
