00:00THE CHAMPIONS!
00:30He's a talented 24-year-old, number ten places,
00:32first senior match since an injury in early August.
00:35A more attacking option to Niasse, I think, he goes to the bench.
00:38And Eton starts his first European game this season in place of Gunther.
00:47Here we go then, Barcelona in the red and blue,
00:50famously kicking from left to right in this first half.
00:55His nickname was The Flea at that time.
00:58Here's Yamal.
01:01Barcelona since he was six.
01:06And he has it back again.
01:08And he can score from there.
01:10Straight into the hands of Kelep.
01:16Barcelona watching that game on TV.
01:20Catalan through and through.
01:22It's a nice build-up, Rafinha, far post,
01:24Barcelona lead after seven minutes, the flag stays down.
01:27Lewandowski, the goalscorer, extraordinary.
01:30Poach is another.
01:33And to be honest, it's been coming since the word go.
01:40And then he swoops.
01:44And picks off his break.
01:46Rafinha, lovely ball across.
01:51Waits for moments like that.
01:55The man who's been that little dummy there.
01:59It's going to give Hadjama a hard evening, you feel.
02:05There's a chance for Rafinha.
02:07Hits Zoukrou.
02:11And a shot from distance.
02:13Flashes over from Chilcunde.
02:15And they're having fun, Barcelona.
02:18Strength and depth at Spanish international level.
02:21Chilcunde, he hasn't played for them since November of 2023.
02:26What can they do here now with Ferentores?
02:30Chilcunde, the goalkeeper.
02:36Nice good courses in there.
02:38Rafinha with it, again low and flat and whipped in.
02:42And nearly came through that to Ferentores.
02:45Yamal.
02:47He thought Rafinha had strayed offside,
02:50and in the end he's bundled over.
02:53Montero, who Grinch has made a good run in there.
02:57Bloom with the support.
02:59It's a dangerous cross looking in for Itten.
03:01And it's wide, and it should have been buried by Colley.
03:04They have plenty of time to measure the finish.
03:07It's a bad miss.
03:11And boys with virtually everyone back inside their own penalty area.
03:14Colley has been left out.
03:16Pedri with the cross, Keller chose to punch.
03:27They're digging in there, young boys.
03:29Here's Rafinha again finding space.
03:31They've got to get a hold of it.
03:33Chilcunde left it.
03:34Pedri.
03:35It's a big block.
03:36Rafinha rattles in the rebound.
03:42Barcelona's dominance shows.
03:47A really chunky block to stop the first shot from Pedri.
03:51Lewandowski has eight.
03:53Short corner kick.
03:56Pedri arrives late in there.
03:58Found space, switched to his left foot.
04:02Itten blocked it.
04:03Laid him down and almost out.
04:10Put his head to it.
04:13And Rafinha lash at home.
04:202-0 Barcelona.
04:36Curl away, then inviting a run and a header.
04:38And it's three.
04:39And it's been oh so very easy for Barcelona.
04:43Up from the back.
04:44And you go Martinez.
04:46Makes it three.
04:49And they have destroyed young boys as Aston Villa did in the last game.
05:00Came in simply too strong for Hadjam who caught under the ball.
05:05Wasn't strong enough.
05:07Didn't leap high enough.
05:09Wasn't watchful enough.
05:12Don't take it away from the header.
05:15Barcelona, three young boys have burned them.
05:18They are a class apart.
05:26His first goal in Europe.
05:30Cassano.
05:35Rafinha.
05:36Pass, move.
05:38Torres tried to find Lewandowski.
05:40They really are turning it on.
05:41Rafinha sparkled Lewandowski.
05:43Torres!
05:45The goalkeeper sprawled and saved.
05:47Otherwise it would have been four.
05:51Can they get another fair on Torres?
05:53Thought he had one.
05:58Rafinha.
05:59Yamao.
06:05Barcelona.
06:13Barcelona well on top.
06:14They've got Yamao in.
06:15That's a beautiful take.
06:16And then the second touch was too heavy.
06:19Showed too much of it to Keller.
06:21Who came and sprawled and saved.
06:23Defending.
06:26And the first half comes to an end with Barcelona leading uncomfortably so.
06:31Lewandowski after nine minutes.
06:32Rafinha following up the score after 34.
06:35And then just three minutes later, Martinez with a powerful header.
06:38Yamao has sparkled absolutely brilliantly.
06:40Yamao, we know about his potential.
06:42Lewandowski, his goal-scoring prowess.
06:45103 European goals now.
06:53Comes across the far post.
06:55Attacked by Martinez and nodded in by Lewandowski.
06:58And they have a fourth on 50 minutes.
07:02Young boys undone by another set-piece.
07:06In both of their games, young boys have defended poorly.
07:09No-one was with Inigo Martinez.
07:13Rafinha's corner was hooking and dangerous.
07:17They let Martinez go.
07:20And no-one was on the shoulder of one of Europe's most deadly strikers.
07:26Barcelona four.
07:27Young boys have burned them.
07:32BARCELONA 5-3
07:39He's a strong player, his colleague.
07:43Nass is there with him with the red boots.
07:46And switched away here now to Emeric.
07:49Decent ball in, half a chance here.
07:52And Montero hits the bar.
07:54And then it's off the line, the rebound to deny the left-back.
07:58And it won't go in for his team.
08:01Only a real moment of danger they've caused.
08:04Juan Montero, off the woodwork.
08:12Poor, given away.
08:14Rafinha picks up Lewandowski on that hat-trick.
08:17Great challenge.
08:18Kamara denied him the third and got hurt in the process.
08:24Fervent place.
08:25Can't see them picking up many points at all in the group.
08:28Not on the evidence of their only two games.
08:30It's Gunde.
08:31Balderrama.
08:32Oh, it could be an own goal, it is!
08:35It's sliced in by Kamara, the young boy's captain,
08:37and that sort of sums it all up.
08:39And Barcelona have a fifth ten minutes from time.
08:44Horrible own goal.
08:48Bring the ball under control and sweep it away.
08:50Went for it first time at the stretch.
08:52And nudged it beyond Keller.
08:54Own goal, 5-0.
08:59Don't see Sison at the board, and we'll see how many minutes.
09:03Young boys have to suffer three more.
09:05Now, here's a run-through by Juan Montero.
09:08And the flag has stayed down.
09:09Can he get a consolation?
09:12They have a consolation.
09:14The referee looks to the flag.
09:18Sison's having a good campaign in young boys' otherwise wretched time.
09:22He timed the run.
09:23He's just being played on, I think, by Yeo.
09:26He's just being played on, I think, by Yeo.
09:31He had a glance.
09:32Took it on.
09:33Two, three strides.
09:35And an effective finish.
09:38And they get their first goal in the Champions League.
09:41League stage of 24-25.
09:44And then, it's been checked.
09:50It's been checked.
09:53And the joy is short-lived.
09:57They know their team has been outclassed.
10:04So, it stays 5-0.
10:05And here's the run now by Rafinha.
10:07And the wriggle.
10:08And the shimmy.
10:21Approaching the last 30 seconds of a game dominated by Barcelona.
10:25Cuenca.
10:27A direct run here.
10:29And Gunvula goes beyond him.
10:30This time, the goalkeeper saves.
10:34He's struggling, the young man, there.
10:36To deal with the power of Silver Gunvula.
10:41And now, it's Barcelona's turn to break.
10:43Mbappé couldn't get away.
10:44Just got caught.
10:48A convincing win for Barcelona.
10:50Their first points on the board in the Champions League.
10:53Champions League plays.
10:55And they've won it in style.
10:56Scintillating at times.
10:58Two for Lewandowski.
10:59Rafinha, who was brilliant.
11:01MartÃnez, up from the back, got one.
11:04An own goal by Kamara.
11:06Where's the fifth?
