Tuesday night’s Champions League encounter against Royal Antwerp saw the Barcelona of old return.
The Catalans were imperious in a first half that saw them 3-0 up before 25 minutes had been played, leaving their visitors shell shocked.
Joao Felix followed up his goal at the weekend with a sharp finish after an exquisite move involving a number of players, before turning provider for Robert Lewandowski.
Antwerp had barely recovered from going two down before Raphinha’s attempted cross was turned into his own net by Jelle Bataille.
