LEWANDOWSKI DOUBLE FIRST BARCELONA TO VICTORY

Robert Lewandowski scored his 100th and 101st UEFA Champions League goals as Barcelona saw off Brest 3-0 at home.

The Pole picked himself up to coolly convert from the penalty spot in the 10th minute, having been fouled by the visiting goalkeeper, to become the third member of the 100 Club.

Barca had scored 14 goals in their last three Champions League games but could not quite replicate that free-scoring form despite dominating possession, with Brest offering stiff resistance.

That was until Dami Olmo skipped past two defenders and scored from close range, effectively securing the victory, and Lewandowski added a third goal in added time to punish sloppy defending.
