Now in the 2022-23 Champions League group stage, the Culers will meet one of their toughest rivals recently: Bayern Munich. Robert Lewandowski will face his former teammates and one of themsent him a ‘peaceful’ warning ahead of their matchup.
When Barcelona’s name came out and then they heard “Group C”, every fan remembered what happened recently against Bayern Munich. In 2020, the German side defeated the Spanish team in the quarter finals with a 2-8 score. Then, fate reunited them again in the 2021 group stage, where the Bundesliga squad won both matches by 3-0.

Fate will reunite him with his former team, but now he will try to score against them and help his club to win both games.
