Champions League: Raphinha equals Messi’s record as Barcelona thrash Dortmund

Published on April 10, 2025 at 05:21 AM

Raphinha's goal in Barcelona's 4-0 win over Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday night means he has equalled a record held by Lionel Messi.

Barca are all but through to the Champions League semi-final following the big win at home.

The front three of Raphinha, Robert Lewandowski and Lamine Yamal all found the back of the net in a comprehensive victory.

Raphinha opened the scoring when he touched in Pau Cubarsi's flick before it crossed the line.

Former Dortmund striker, Lewandowski, extended Barcelona's lead with a brace, before Yamal rounded off scoring.

Raphinha assisted one goal for Lewandowski and one for Yamal, meaning that he already has 19 direct goal involvements in this season's Champions League (50 in all competitions).

That moves him level with Messi, who also hit 19 goal involvements in the 2011-12 campaign.
