Raphinha steers Barcelona: 14 goals as they dominate LaLiga
Barcelona’s perfect start keeps rolling with Raphinha as a false ‘9’: 14 goals (12 in LaLiga) and two hat-tricks.
Barcelona are living a historic start in LaLiga: they’ve won all seven league games and sit with 31 goals for and 7 against, with Raphinha driving the attack from a false ‘9’ role. The Brazilian has 14 goals this season (12 in LaLiga), two hat-tricks, and three doubles.
In the league, Flick’s side have crushed teams including Racing (7-2), Elche (5-0), Rayo (5-2) and Valencia (5-0). Their Champions League run has matched that momentum with a 5-1 win in their first match against Feyenoord.
A false ‘9’ difference-maker
Raphinha’s form underpins a Barça that’s already unbeatable at home and aims to go all the way in Europe, where they haven’t lifted the trophy since 2014-15. MARCA also highlights Lamine’s eight goals and six assists in the eight matches, plus quick impact from new signings.
