All the goals scored in this game came in the second half as it all started with Raphinha\u2019s superb goal in the 65th minute. Raphinha gave visitors the lead they wanted since long. Their newly signed striker Robert Lewandowski also named himself on the scoresheet as he also scored a goal in the 80th minute before an own goal by Barcelona\u2019s defender Jules Kounde in the 85th minute.<\/p>\n
