- Lewandowski scored 46 seconds into the game
- It was the striker's first of two goals
- Dembele and Fati also impressed
WHAT HAPPENED? Robert Lewandowski opened the scoring just 46 seconds into the contest with his first of two goals, but Alexander Isak pulled his team level shortly afterwards. The second half belonged to the Blaugrana though as Lewandowski, Dembele and Fati all hit the target in an impressive win.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Barcelona had a rough time in spells at the Anoeta but managed to bounce back from their slip up in the opening weekend to secure the victory and prevent Real Madrid from going further ahead in the early season table. Their attack appeared much more fluid in this one, regaining some of the optimism that dipped last week.
ALL EYES ON: Frenkie de Jong’s future at Barcelona remains uncertain as Manchester United continue their pursuit of the midfielder. The Dutchman did not look up to his best early on in Sunday’s game, though, as he surrendered possession to allow Sociedad to equalise.
