Barcelona's 3-0 victory over Mallorca in La Liga's 23rd round was a moment of triumph for Robert Lewandowski. By scoring his tenth goal of the current campaign, the Polish striker joined an elite circle of the greatest goalscorers of the modern era.

Details: According to Opta, this achievement puts Lewandowski alongside Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Robert has become only the third player in the 21st century to score at least 10 goals in 15 consecutive seasons in Europe's top five leagues. Ronaldo currently leads with a run of 16 seasons, while Messi stopped at 15 such campaigns.

It should be noted that the match was controlled by the Blaugrana from start to finish, ending in a comfortable win. Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring. Early in the second half, Lamine Yamal doubled the hosts' advantage. The final word belonged to young Marc Bernal, for whom this evening became truly unforgettable as the La Masia graduate scored his debut goal for Barcelona's first team.

As a result, Barcelona maintains their lead in the league, pulling four points clear of Real Madrid, while Robert Lewandowski shares fifth place in the La Liga scoring chart with Lamine Yamal.

Reminder: Barcelona set a club record in the match against Mallorca.
