Barcelona player ratings vs Atletico Madrid: Robert Lewandowski is back to his best! Star striker runs Rojiblancos ragged as Joao Felix gets revenge once again

The Pole scored one and provided two assists as Xavi's side ran out comfortable winners in the capital

After struggling through his campaign, Robert Lewandowski has come alive of late. And he showed up once again for Barcelona against Atletico Madrid, having a hand in all three goals as the Blaugrana saw off Diego Simeone's side, 3-0. The Polish striker scored one, and assisted two - including yet another goal for Joao Felix against his parent club - to help Barca hold onto second place in La Liga.

Felix broke the deadlock in the first, finding the bottom corner to cap off a flowing Blaugrana move and showing little hesitation in celebrating in front of the Atleti fans.Lewandowski made it two after the break, a fine swivel and ping off the post doubling the visitors' advantage. The Polish striker set up the third, an angled cross eagerly met by Fermin Lopez to put the game beyond reach.

Atleti still threatened, but Marc-Andre Ter Stegen made a series of diving stops to ensure that the lead - and his clean sheet - stayed intact. Barca won't win La Liga, but performances have improved since Xavi announced his intent to leave in June. And perhaps that's enough to give this beleaguered side some hope going forward.
