Newcastle entered the game excitedly and put pressure from the first minutes, but the effectiveness belonged to Barcelona. In the second noteworthy attack, Raphinha opened the score with a sharp finish.
However, the home team's uncertain defense quickly made them pay the price when Anthony Elanga equalized after a combination with Lewis Hall.
The game quickly became open and fast-paced. Marc Bernal took advantage of a set piece to bring Barcelona back the advantage, but Lamine Yamal's personal mistake created an opportunity for Elanga to complete a double, bringing Newcastle back into the race.
The turning point came at the end of the first half, when Raphinha brought home a penalty. From the 11m spot, Yamal redeemed himself with a goal to increase the score to 3-2 for Barcelona.
Stepping into the second half, Barcelona completely controlled the game. Fermin Lopez scored after a textbook counter-attack, before Robert Lewandowski scored a quick double, almost extinguishing all hopes of Newcastle.
In a chaotic game, the away team's defense continued to make mistakes and was punished. Raphinha closed the nightmare of the "Magpies" with his seventh goal, sealing a dominant 7-2 victory for the Spanish representative.
This victory once again affirmed the strength and bravery of Barcelona in the continental arena. Meanwhile, Newcastle had to accept a heavy defeat, closing the Champions League journey in a bitter way.
