BARCELONA ran riot over Newcastle at the Nou Camp in a disastrous Champions League night for the Magpies.
It took Raphinha just six minutes to open the scoring for the hosts, and travelling fans will have worried that it was a sign of a routing in the making.
Those fears would prove to be on the money, even if the 7-2 result did not arrive in the way they might have expected.
Newcastle threatened to put up a fight after battling back from a one-goal deficit not once but twice in the opening half an hour.
A moment of madness from Kieran Trippier – for which he was lucky not to be sent off – saw the Catalans gifted a penalty to hand them a 3-2 lead just before the stroke of half-time.
But the second half was where it all came undone for the North-East side, with four unanswered goals dooming them to a European exit.
