"A Fermin Lopez hat-trick and two goals from Marcus Rashford powered Barcelona to a commanding 6-1 Champions League victory over Olympiakos. The match got off to a flying start when the 22-year-old Lopez opened the scoring from a rebound in the seventh minute and he doubled his tally in the 39th, finishing off a lightning-quick counterattack. Olympiakos had a glimmer of hope early in the second half when Ayoub El Kaabi cut the deficit to 2-1 with a penalty,"
"The decision incensed Olympiakos but gave Barcelona a numerical advantage they made the most of, as Lamine Yamal fired home their third from the penalty spot after Rashford was fouled in the box in the 68th minute, with the Englishman adding his own name to the scoresheet in the 74th from inside the area. Lopez completed his hat-trick three minutes later before Rashford then wrapped up the rout with his second goal in the 79th minute following a swift counterattack."
