FC Barcelona continued their impressive start to the season with a resounding 7-0 victory over Real Valladolid at the Camp Nou.

This marks their fourth consecutive win in La Liga, a feat last achieved under Ernesto Valverde in the 2017/18 season.

Raphinha stole the show with his first-ever career hat-trick, scoring in the 20th, 64th, and 72nd minutes.

He was joined on the scoresheet by Robert Lewandowski, Jules Koundé, Dani Olmo, and Ferran Torres.

Barcelona’s dominant display saw them score seven goals in a single match for the first time in six years.

Hansi Flick’s side has now netted an impressive 13 goals in their opening four games.

Despite being plagued by injuries, Flick has worked wonders with his limited squad, revitalizing the likes of Lewandowski, Raphinha, and others while promoting young talent from La Masia.

This convincing win sends a strong statement, propelling Barcelona to the top of the table with a perfect record ahead of the international break.
