Barcelona had been pegged back in their pursuit of three straight Champions League victories, having taken an early lead against Crvena Zvedza. However, Hansi Flick’s side have now re-established their advantage in Belgrade with only minutes remaining in the first half.
It was Inigo Martinez that scored the opening goal for Barcelona, although that lead was wiped out by Silas Katompa Mvumpa. Fortunately, the Catalans have now gone 2-1 in front on the 43rd minute, with Robert Lewandowski firing home his 18th goal of the season.
