Barcelona snatched three valuable points from Signal Iduna Park after an exciting 3-2 victory over Borussia Dortmund.
Perhaps the first star of this match is Ferran Torres, after he replaced Robert Lewandowski in the 71st minute and quickly left his mark on the match.
Rafinha opened the scoring for Barcelona in the 52nd minute, but Serhou Guirassy equalized from a penalty kick in the 60th minute.

After Ferran Torres came on, the Spanish star managed to give Barça the lead again in the 75th minute, but Guirassy equalized again in the 78th minute.
From a perfect counterattack and a touch that can only be described as magical by Lamine Yamal, Torres was alone in front of Gregor Kobel’s goal and scored the winning goal for the Blaugrana in the 85th minute.
