Lewandowski’s Super-Sub Role Powers Barcelona to Comeback
Robert Lewandowski (Barcelona)
September 2025
Barcelona overturned a 1-0 deficit to beat Real Oviedo 3-1, with Lewandowski scoring five minutes after coming off the bench. His third goal this season as a substitute highlighted his adaptability, while Frenkie de Jong’s introduction transformed Barca’s midfield. Reina punished Joan Garcia’s error with a stunning strike, but Flick’s halftime changes — especially De Jong replacing Casado — brought control and creativity. Lewandowski’s flicked finish and Barca’s superior second-half tempo sealed the win, keeping Oviedo stuck in the relegation zone.
