Barcelona winger Raphinha scored a superb hat-trick as his side demolished Bayern Munich in the Champions League league phase.
Raphina opener the scoring inside the first minute after latching on to a ball over the top and rounding goalkeeper Manuel Neuer.
England captain Harry Kane equalised for the visitors by volleying in Serge Gnabry's cross at the back post in the 18th minute.
But Barcelona continued to punish Bayern's ineffective high line with Fermin Lopez sent through and poking the ball past Neuer to set Robert Lewandowski up for the host's second 18 minutes later.
On the stroke of half-time captain for the night Raphinha made it 3-1 with a fabulous curling finish from the edge of the box.
And shortly after the restart he completed his hat-trick, latching on to another long ball and firing a shot into the far corner.
