Raphinha’s injury further complicated matters, leaving the score 0-0 at halftime.

The second half mirrored the first, with Barcelona persistently seeking a breakthrough.

Lamine Yamal’s impactful shot and Gündogan’s missed chance highlighted the team’s efforts.

The deadlock finally broke in the 73rd minute when Lamine Yamal, assisted by Robert Lewandowski, scored a sublime left-footed goal.
