After a dismal weekend result that saw them beaten 4-2 by Osasuna, Barcelona side came into their Champions League clash with Young Boys on Tuesday desperate to prove a point. Some absolutely beautiful football followed, as Barca's attack dovetailed to devastating effect against their Swiss opponents and secured a 5-0 win.
Barcelona had the lead within eight minutes, as Robert Lewandowski ghosted in at the back post to tap in a cross-cum-shot from Raphinha. The Brazilian then added a second himself, finishing after Pedri's shot was blocked.
Pedri soon turned provider, sending an excellent free-kick into the area, which was headed in by Inigo Martinez. And just five minutes after the restart, Barca extended their lead after Martinez met a Raphinha corner with a diving header back across goal for Lewandowski, who tapped in.
The Blaugrana added a fifth late on, as Alejandro Balde's cross was inadvertently turned into his own net by Mohamed Camara.
