Raphinha scores twice vs Aston Villa, levels Ronaldinho and Bakero
He has 19 goals this season, 15 of them in LaLiga, where he is the outright top scorer, and visits the Metropolitano on Sunday.
Raphinha scored twice in the Champions League against Aston Villa and drew level with Ronaldinho and José Mari Bakero on 94 Barcelona goals, according to Mundo Deportivo. The Brazilian, who had already scored twice against Alavés on Saturday, made it 2-0 seven minutes after the restart and 3-0 in the 65th minute.
The first came from a through ball by FermĂn, and the ball went in off Pau Torres. The second was set up by Joao Cancelo, who ran in from the left and played him in inside the box.
He now has 19 goals this season, 15 in LaLiga and 4 in the Champions. Flick took him off for the final 20 minutes with an eye on Sunday's trip to the Metropolitano, where the LaLiga top spot is at stake: a Barça win would leave Atlético five points behind.
