<p>The Spanish giants were the better side on the day as they thrashed the Bundesliga team by 4 goals to 1.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Raphinha, who was the captain of the side for 60 minutes, led the charge with a hat-trick and an impressive overall performance.</p>

<p>The Brazilian opened his account in the first minute before he extended the lead by two goals after Lewandowski restored Barcelona's lead.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Harry Kane pulled parity for Bayern Munich, minutes after his first was disallowed by the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) as being offside with his toe.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, after the break, it was all Barcelona, and Raphinha netted a deserved hat-trick in the 56th minute.</p>
