Lewandowski's 50 goals in Barcelona. It has overshadowed the legends

Just a few weeks ago, it seemed that Lewandowski's career at the highest level was inevitably coming to an end. The 35-year-old has been unable to break his goalscoring double in La Liga for almost two months. However, everything changed around February, when he finally remembered his potential.

The Pole's brace against Celta gave the Catalan team a very important 2-1 win, and placed it ahead of many football legends in the club's history. Already in his second season in Spain, Lewandowski reached the 50-goal mark in all competitions. Thus the scoring exploits of David Villa (48 goals for Barcelona) and Thierry Henry (49) were left in the shadows.

Our compatriot's goal rate is even more impressive compared to his famous predecessors in his position. Vela and Henry needed 120 and 121 games for Barcelona respectively to accumulate their goals. Lewandowski's score of 79 was enough to surpass their accomplishments.

During the current season, the former Bayern Munich sniper scored a total of 17 goals in 33 matches on all fronts, including 12 in the Spanish League alone. He is not letting his guard down in the battle for another top scorer in the competition. They are currently four goals behind the leaders, Real Madrid's Jude Bellingham. He finished the previous season in a Barcelona shirt with 23 goals in the Spanish League alone, becoming the team's top scorer.
