  "account": "Raphinha scored twice as Barcelona dominated Feyenoord to open their Champions League season with a convincing 5-1 victory on Wednesday. The Catalan giants, who have won all five of their matches this season - scoring five goals in four of them - began strongly, with Raphinha opening the scoring in the third minute. Karim Adeyemi added a second goal with a long-range strike, while Lamine Yamal netted a neat free-kick to complete the first-half tally. Despite a late goal from Sem Steijn, substitute Gabriel Jesus sealed the win with a fifth goal. Barcelona manager Hansi Flick praised his team's cohesion, stating they played like a \"unit\" and controlled the game. Raphinha, who has been playing up front after the departure of Lewandowski and Torres, expressed his satisfaction with the win, saying it gave the team confidence for the long season ahead.",
  "summary": "BARCELONA: Raphinha continued his superb goalscoring form with a brace as Barcelona demolished Feyenoord 5-1 to begin their Champions League campaign in perfect fashion on Wednesday.",
