The black beast ended up tame. After six consecutive defeats against Bayern, Barça, with Flick in charge, thrashed the Bavarians and achieved an important victory in the Champions League. Raphinha, with a hat-trick, led the exhibition of punch three days before traveling to the Bernabéu.
Relieved
Iñaki Peña, 6
Bayern’s best moments revealed their insecurities when it came to moving away from under the sticks. Then, he calmed down and was one more in the Barça party.
Growing
Koundé, 7
After half an hour of nightmare, he settled down and once again offered the reliable and admirable version of the entire season. He took over the right wing and collaborated in getting the ball out.
Robust
Cubarsi, 7
It seems that things are not going well with him, always right on time and well placed, but he is only 17 years old even though he appears to be much older. It is a bastion.
Walled
Íñigo Martínez, 8
He rebelled against Bayern’s superiority and led the recovery of serenity in the Barça defense. He is a born leader and always marked the offside line. It is indisputable.
Attentive
Bucket, 7
He coordinates better and better with his colleagues in the rearguard and always dares to attack when he smells danger. He suffered at the beginning, like everyone, and excelled at the end.
Marvelous
Casado, 9
With a very different style, he perfected the midfield position as only Busquets had achieved. Fast with the ball and quick without it on the court, he offered a wonderful show.
Serene
Pedri, 8
Barça did not find serenity until the Canary Islander found the ball and was able to tempo the game. In his team’s worst moment, his direction was absolutely key.
Elected
Fermin, 8
Flick resolved the doubt in the eleven with the Huelva player, who responded after 58 seconds by giving the pass for the first goal. Then he forced a yellow card for Kimmich and signed with another goal pass, making it 3-1.
Spirited
Lamine Yamal, 7
How Barça went from less to more, leaving quality details along the way. He couldn’t score but he left a great assist for Raphinha at 4-1. Munich already knows how to spend it.
Relentless
Lewandowski, 8
He worked in front of and behind the cameras. He unloaded a thousand and one balls when Bayern pressed and then made it 2-1, which he did not celebrate. Of course, no one took away his smile.
Triplicate
Raphinha, 9
Captain’s leadership display of those for eternity. He scored the first at 58 seconds, repeated with the 3-1 down on Upamecano and the 4-1 on the run, the house brand.

Brave
De Jong, 6
He forgot about the injury and looked fine with the ball.
Anxious
Dani Olmo, 6
Barça needs him and he needs to play. Good minutes.
Slow
Ansu Fati, sc
It’s still in the rhythm phase.
Celebrated
Gavi, sc
Second game since the injury.
Believer
Pau Victor, sc
Always contributes.
