Lewandowski, the star of the show for Barcelona, gave two assists to Joao Felix and Fermin Lopez and scored a brilliant finish on the turn. He was happy with the performance after speaking to DAZN Espana. The Blaugranas are in perhaps their best form of the season. Their victory over Atletico Madrid was the first home league defeat of the season for Diego Simeone and they are the first team to beat them at the Metropolitano in La Liga since they did so last year, in January of 2023.
"Is this the season's best game? It might be. I'm not certain. The fact that we controlled the game from the outset and scored three goals on this field speaks volumes about how effectively we played. An excellent game. Extremely pleased with the goal as well as the two assists. We perform better when we play more easily.
For the third time in five games, the Blaugrana led comfortably going into the final stages and have now gone over 400 league minutes without giving up a goal—their greatest run of the year.
"I believe that we have adjusted our training slightly, increasing the intensity, during the past two, three, or four weeks. Right now, I also feel great physically. My teammates, I think the same. We wish to advance a bit. We wish to take another break following the few weeks of the current international break. This is a critical moment. We aim to play better as well as win.
Naturally, this led to an instant debate about whether the Blaugrana have not been practicing hard enough for the remainder of the season. However, it is understandable that they have not been training at their best because of the mounting injuries and their busy schedule till mid-February. Due to injuries, Barcelona was without Pedri, Frenkie de Jong, and Andreas Christensen during this encounter. All three players began the first leg of their Champions League Round of 16 match against Napoli.
As the sun set on another thrilling weekend of football, it's time we sit back and take a look at the unexpected results that kept fans on the edge of their seats. Were you expecting the twists this weekend? Because, honestly, some of them were jaw-dropping!

Neymar departed Paris Saint-Germain for Al Hilal in Saudi Arabia, although he hasn't played any match yet for his new team. He claimed in a news conference on Thursday that the Saudi Pro League might even be better than France's Ligue 1.
"I feel good and pleased, but I'm not in perfect physical condition. However, my body and head are both in good shape," the 31-year-old Neymar stated. “I was scheduled to play in Al Hilal's most recent game, but the coach decided to bench me when I got injured in practice so I could travel to Brazil”.
Now Neymar's doubts seem to be over. "You start giving value to everything you did," Neymar stated, "after a lot of pressure from family and friends (to return to the national team)." "They put you in your place and make you realize it is worthwhile to continue being happy by wearing Brazil's shirt when you are with your people, your family."
Neymar needs one goal to surpass Pelé's 77 goals to become the best scorer for the national team in official matches, a feat that the Brazilian soccer confederation is reluctant to acknowledge because it counts the three-time World Cup winner's goals differently and thinks he has 95.
However, Neymar acknowledged that the award is just another reason for him to represent Brazil. The striker replied, "It is hard to know what that record signifies, but it does signify a lot. "Nobody ever considered getting over it. After it is finished, I will respond to it.
Neymar, who left PSG amid rumors he was not wanted at the club after receiving abuse from French fans in recent years, took a shot at his former league at the press conference. Neymar responded, when asked how he would stay competitive in a league outside of Europe, "I guarantee you that football there (in Saudi Arabia) is the same. The Saudi league may be superior to Ligue 1 because the ball is round, there is a goal, and some players have joined the league.
"My head won't change much; I want to win trophies for Al Hilal. Everyone criticized me for being too competitive when I went to France, and it was there that I experienced the worst pain in my life, stated Neymar. "I am confident that it won't be simple to win the Saudi title; other teams have grown stronger and have well-known players. You'll definitely be watching since it will be incredibly intriguing.
