Barcelona 5-2 Sevilla - Raphinha scores hat-trick in comfortable win Raphinha delivered a standout performance with a hat-trick as Barcelona secured a commanding 5-2 victory over Sevilla in La Liga. The Brazilian forward, who has now netted 11 goals in the league this season, showcased his clinical finishing and movement throughout the match. His first goal came in the ninth minute after Joao Cancelo was fouled by Djibril Sow, prompting a penalty that Raphinha converted with a cool chip. The hosts extended their lead shortly after the break when Dani Olmo added a second goal with a precise first-time strike from 16 yards. However, Sevilla responded with a goal from Oso, whose cushioned volley marked his first senior appearance, giving the visitors hope before halftime. Barcelona’s dominance resumed in the second half, with Raphinha sealing his hat-trick just six minutes after the restart. His shot was deflected by Nemanja Gudelj but still found the top corner. Cancelo then added a fifth goal on the hour mark with a powerful strike from the halfway line. Sevilla’s efforts to mount a comeback were halted by Sow’s header from Oso’s cross in the final moments of the game. The win solidified Barcelona’s position at the top of the table, with the club now four points ahead of Real Madrid with 10 matches remaining. Sevilla, meanwhile, remain in 14th place, just five points above the relegation zone. Raphinha was substituted in the 82nd minute, receiving a standing ovation, as Gavi made his first appearance since an injury layoff in August. Lamine Yamal also came on as a second-half substitute. Barcelona will face Newcastle United in the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie on Wednesday, having drawn 1-1 in the first leg at St. James’ Park.#barcelona #raphinha #sevilla #dani_olmo #nemanja_gudelj

The win also served as sweet revenge for Barcelona, who had suffered a 4-1 defeat to Sevilla in October. Raphinha was the standout performer, netting a hat trick to cement his status as a key attacking threat.

He added a second penalty in the 21st minute, capitalizing on another defensive error by Sevilla. Raphinha completed his treble in the 51st minute, finishing a looping shot after a deflection off Nemanja Gudelj.

Manager Hansi Flick praised his team’s performance, acknowledging the need for greater urgency in the early stages of the match. “Three points more, one game less, we scored five goals, but in the beginning we don’t play with this conviction I want to see,” Flick said. “We have many games, I know, and maybe for many players it’s a lot, but to play faster, this is what we have to do.#barcelona #raphinha #sevilla #dani_olmo #nou_camp
