Barcelona came away with a convincing 3-0 win over Mallorca in LaLiga, and the Blaugrana opened the scoring in the 29th minute. After a sequence of rebounds inside the box, captain Robert Lewandowski brought the ball under control and finished with class past goalkeeper Leo Román, a strike that placed him alongside Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in a remarkable category.

With that goal, the Polish forward reached 113 goals wearing the Catalan giants’ shirt and recorded his 10th tally of the 2025-26 LaLiga campaign. The finish against Mallorca officially moved Lewandowski into an exclusive group of elite European scorers, one previously occupied by Messi and Ronaldo.

Thanks to his weekend contribution, Lewandowski became the third player to post double-digit goal totals in 15 consecutive seasons across Europe’s top five leagues in the 21st century. Only Cristiano Ronaldo, with 16, and Lionel Messi, with 15, had achieved that level of sustained dominance before him.

Lewandowski continues to answer with goals despite being 37 years old. His contract with Barcelona expires in June, and for now, his future remains unresolved. The legendary striker’s priority is to stay at the club, although the Blaugrana front office is expected to evaluate the possibility of bringing in a younger No. 9 for the coming seasons.
