The Champions League face off between Barcelona and Benfica was as thrilling as it gets, as Barca bounced back twice to snatch a dramatic 5-4 winner in Portugal.
The hosts shock themselves with a 3-1 lead at halftime courtesy of Vangelis Pavlidis’ 30 minutes hat-trick.
After the break, Raphinha pulled one back before an own for by Ronald Araujo increased the deficit to 4-3.
On a good day, that’s enough to hand the Portuguese side a win, but as we know, in football, it’s never over until it’s over and with that came Eric Garcia’s equalizer and a late winner from Raphinha.
The comeback, befitting of a Champions League game helped Hansi Flick’s side book a place in the last 16.
