FC Barcelona news | Nobody was better than Lewandowski

The Pole scored eleven goals in his first eight games for Barcelona, ​​a number that Barcelona’s great scorers have yet to reach.

Only Ronaldo is close to his records by scoring nine goals in his first eight matches

Poland’s Robert Lewandowski impressed everyone with his quick adaptation to Barcelona, ​​his game and his goals.. He has 11 in his first eight matches, eight in the league and three in the Champions League, and he’s breaking all records.

As we explained yesterday, with two Elche goals, he surpassed the old record of the legend Kubala, who scored seven goals in his first six league matches he played, five of them in the same match, against Celta. Lewandowski adds eight.

And if we take a look at the beginning of the club of top scorers who have passed through Barcelona in recent years, no one will be able to achieve what the pole is. Only the Brazilian Ronaldo comes close to that, as in his only season with the Blaugrana, 1996-1997, he scored nine goals in his first eight official matches he played.. He has already made his debut with two goals against Atletico Madrid in the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup.

Beyond that are the beginnings of Romario and Samuel Eto’o. They both scored six goals in their first eight games for Barcelona. The Brazilian made his debut with an unforgettable treble against Real Sociedad in the 1993-94 season, while the Cameroonian, who arrived in Barcelona in the 2004-05 season, stood out by scoring five goals in his first five league matches.

Stoichkov and Rivaldo

After them, two other prominent figures in Barcelona’s history: Hristo Stoichkov and Rivaldo. The Bulgarian arrived in Barcelona in the 1990-1991 season. He scored a goal in each of the first three league matches and two goals in the victory over Trabzonspor in the Cup Winners’ Cup. Rivaldo signed for Barcelona in the summer of 1997 for 4000 million pesetas, and although he did not score in his first two matches, the Spanish Super Cup, he did achieve some impressive numbers in the league, scoring five goals in his first four matches of the tournament. He succeeded Ibrahimovic with four goals in eight matches and Ronaldinho with three. Other scorers like Luis Suarez and Neymar have only scored one goal in their first eight games for Barcelona.
