Lewandowski nets 100th Champions League goal in Barcelona win

Robert Lewandowski became the third player to reach 100 Champions League goals as Barcelona cruised to victory over Brest with a dominant performance.

Only Cristiano Ronaldo (141) and Lionel Messi (129) have scored more in Europe’s elite competition than the 36-year-old Polish striker.

Lewandowski’s milestone goal came in the 10th minute from the penalty spot after Brest goalkeeper Marco Bizot collided with him in the box.

Dani Olmo doubled Barcelona’s lead with his first Champions League goal for the club, displaying superb control to bypass Brendan Chardonnet before calmly slotting the ball under Bizot.

Lewandowski added his second of the night—and 101st in the competition—after a brilliant spin in the box allowed him to effortlessly place the ball into the bottom corner.

Barcelona dominated possession, controlling 77% of the ball and limiting Brest to zero shots on target. Olmo came close again in the second half, but Chardonnet made a spectacular goal-line clearance.

Brest briefly celebrated a goal when Mathias Pereira Lage struck past Iñaki Peña, but it was swiftly ruled out for offside. Substitute Pablo Torre had an opportunity to seal the win late on but missed the target.

The victory moves Barcelona to second in the league-phase standings, with four wins from five matches, while Brest drops to eighth.
