In a breathtaking Champions League semi-final encounter against Inter Milan, Barcelona's Raphinha etched his name into the club's history books. His performance not only contributed to a dramatic 3-3 draw but also surpassed Lionel Messi's long-held record for goal contributions in a single Champions League season for Barcelona. Before the match, Raphinha already boasted an impressive tally of 12 goals and 7 assists in the tournament, bringing his total contributions to 19. This remarkable feat initially tied him with Messi's record set during the 2011-12 season. However, Raphinha's assist on Ferran Torres' equalizing goal in the second half pushed his total to 20, officially breaking Messi's record. While a spectacular long-range effort later in the game struck the back of Inter's goalkeeper Yann Sommer, denying him a 21st contribution, the record was already secured. This achievement further underscores Raphinha's exceptional season. He has contributed a staggering 20 goal contributions in the Champions League alone, a figure only surpassed by Cristiano Ronaldo's record in the competition's history. His overall season stats are equally impressive, with 30 goals and 21 assists in 51 games across all competitions, cementing his status as a key player for Barcelona's quest for a treble. The team's success is also largely attributed to their potent attacking trio of Raphinha, Lamine Yamal, and Robert Lewandowski. The game itself was a rollercoaster of emotions. Inter Milan took an early lead with a stunning backheel goal from Marcus Thuram within the first 30 seconds. Barcelona responded with equal fervor, with Yamal scoring a magnificent solo goal and Torres equalizing before halftime. Inter regained the lead in the second half, only to see Raphinha's deflected shot secure a 3-3 draw at the Estadi Olimpic Lluis Companys. This match will be remembered as one of the most exciting Champions League clashes of the season. Raphinha's journey to this milestone is equally compelling. Since joining Barcelona from Leeds in 2022, he has consistently impressed, making 137 appearances and scoring 50 goals for the club. This season marks his most prolific yet, cementing his place as a key figure in Barcelona's resurgence under manager Hansi Flick. With the Copa del Rey already secured, the club's pursuit of a treble is gaining momentum, fueled by the brilliance of their electrifying front three and the record-breaking achievements of Raphinha.
