Robert Lewandowski fires again as Barcelona breeze past Sevilla

Barcelona kept up their unbeaten start to the 2022/23 La Liga campaign with a straightforward 3-0 win over rivals Sevilla.

La Blaugrana took on the Andalucians at the Camp Nou on an evening billed as an early season Top Four test for both sides in Catalonia.

However, it was the home team who impressed throughout, with Sevilla finding themselves still without a win so far this season.

Barcelona hit the ground running on the night, as Raphinha pounced to nod home his first Barcelona goal, after Robert Lewandowsk’s effort was kept out.
