Robert Lewandowski became the third player after Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi to reach the milestone of 100 Champions League goals. The Polish striker scored twice in Barcelona’s 3-0 win over French side Brest.
Lewandowski put Barca ahead after being fouled by goalkeeper Marco Bizot. He scored from the penalty spot in the tenth minute.
The hosts wasted several chances to extend their lead. They also had to deal with the opposition’s counter attack.
The Catalan giants finally scored. Dani Olmo scored the second goal after going past two defenders. Then Lewandowski hit the final nail in Brest’s coffin.
The victory lifted Barca to second place in the 36-team table with 12 points from five games. Inter are one point behind Milan and level with Liverpool in third. The Allreds welcome Real Madrid on Wednesday. Brest fell to ninth place with 10 points.
