Maguette Gueye pulled one back for Racing after an assist from Asier Villalibre, only for Cancelo to add his second from distance in the 36th minute after a deflection off Villalibre. Raphinha then made it 4-1, with Racing goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala saving a Lamine Yamal penalty before the break, reports Xinhua.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With Wojciech Szczesny in goal for Barcelona at the start of the second half, Yassir Zabiri reduced the deficit with his sixth goal of the season in the 65th minute, but Barcelona responded immediately as Raphinha completed his hat trick from the spot two minutes later.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Gabriel Jesus curled in a stunning finish to make it 6-2, and Yamal added a seventh in the 89th minute as Barcelona took its tally to 28 goals from its opening six matches.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
