Real Sociedad 1-4 Barcelona: Lewandowski scores brace on his 34th birthday as Xavi Hernandez side records first La Liga win (Highlights) 2022-23

Robert Lewandowski's first two goals for Barcelona helped them to a 4-1 win in the Basque Country over a Real Sociedad side.

Barcelona's rampant second-half performance leads to an impressive win.

The visitors made their mark instantly when Lewandowski finished Balde's cross. But Sociedad struck back through Isak's scruffy finish.

Real Sociedad had chances to take the lead, only for wasteful misses from Silva and Kubo.

For the first 15 minutes of the second half, it looked like Sociedad would push harder for a winner - but then the introduction of Ansu Fati changed the dynamics of the game.

The young attacker set up Dembele and Lewandowski with superb assists to make it 3-1, before he sealed the game himself with a cool finish.

Barcelona run out 4-1 winners, but it all hung in the balance until Fati's arrival.
