Barcelona are flying high under Hansi Flick and the team have not shown any signs of complacency. The Catalonia’s side recent 3-1 victory over Espanyol marked an impressive milestone for the team.
Following their 4-0 victory over the mighty Real Madrid, Barcelona secured a well deserved 3-1 victory over Espanyol on Sunday to secure a nine point lead.
The victory over Espanyol in the Catalan Derby marked an impressive milestone for the team, as it brought their goal count to a remarkable 50 goals this season.
This achievement was reached in only 15 games, a feat even the legendary trio of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez, and Neymar could not accomplish in their time together at the club.
Leading the charge this season under Hansi Flick is Robert Lewandowski, who has netted an astonishing 17 goals so far, setting a strong foundation for the team’s offence.

Young talent Lamine Yamal has also been making waves with six goals, while Raphinha has added another 11 to the team’s tally.
Together, these three players alone have contributed 34 of the team’s 50 goals, underscoring their critical roles in Barcelona’s attacking strategy.
In La Liga, Barcelona have scored a total of 40 goals, marking it as one of the most productive starts in their history.
The only better record dates back to the 1950-51 season when the team scored even more within the first 12 league games.
In the Champions League, the team has added 10 more goals to their season total, averaging three goals per game.
Barcelona enjoyed a 5-0 win against Young Boys and a 4-1 win over Bayern Munich, with only a single defeat to Monaco (2-1), where they still managed to score.
Hansi Flicks’ team are the team to beat this season and all eyes will on what they’ll be achieve when the season comes to an end.
