Barcelona returned to the summit of LaLiga in convincing fashion, hammering Rayo Vallecano 5-2 at the Nou Camp with Raphinha and Lamine Yamal each contributing two goals to the rout.

The result keeps Barcelona's record perfect, underlining their credentials as the division's dominant force early in the season. Yamal, who opened his account for the campaign on the night, announced himself with two sharp finishes to go alongside Raphinha's brace.

The Nou Camp faithful were treated to a high-scoring display that left no doubt about who controls the top of the Spanish top flight.
