FC Barcelona registered another win in the 2024/25 La Liga campaign as they cruised over Sevilla, 5-1, at the Montjuic. Having gone into the international break with a 3-point lead at the top, the Blaugrana club started exactly from where they left off, maintaining the crucial lead over their El Clasico rivals Real Madrid. With the fixture proving to be the return of ace stars like Gavi and Fermin Lopez back in the Barcelona setup, apart from the club's dominant display, the Sevilla fixture proved to be a perfect one for the Blaugrana club. Be it the club's attack force, their midfield, or defense, all responded brilliantly, once again putting in crucial efforts for the win.

While every FC Barcelona player stood crucial in the club's overall performance, some just stood a level apart above others, making this 5-1 win look much more comfortable for the Blaugrana club. On that note, here is a look at the 3 FC Barcelona stars who stood out in the club's 5-1 victory over Sevilla:

Pedri

Since his injury return at the start of the season, ace star Pedri has been one of the biggest matchwinners for FC Barcelona. Be it performing in the double-pivot role alongside Marc Casado or playing as a number 10, the Catalan star has been spectacular for Hansi Flick's setup, being crucial in the club's overall success so far this season.

In the recent fixture against Sevilla, the ace midfielder was handed the duties of the pivot role, and as expected, the 21-year-old stood out, playing a crucial role in their 5-1 victory. Apart from scoring a brilliant golazo to give his side the 2-0 lead, Pedri making key passes and creating brilliant forward opportunities while maintaining a defensive check was pivotal in the club's dominant display.

Robert Lewandowski

One of the biggest positives for FC Barcelona's 2024/25 campaign so far has been the brilliant form of star forward Robert Lewandowski, and the number 9 continued his dominant run yet again for the club. Already leading up the Pichichi race with 10 goals in 9 appearances, the Polish legend added 2 further in his count, having now twice as many goals as the second-top scorer this season.

Although FC Barcelona took a steady start in the fixture, Lewandowski opened the scoring for the side, delivering a perfect spot kick in the 24th minute. Just 15 minutes later, the star number 9 completed his brace of the night, tripling Barca's lead. Although he had been a bit fortunate, Lewandowski might have had consecutive hattricks this season, but nevertheless, he deservedly won the MOTM award for his dominant display.

Pablo Torre

Although there were many brilliant performers for FC Barcelona being capable of being on this list, credit needs to be given to ace prodigy Pablo Torre, who stood sensational for the Blaugrana club against Sevilla. With his impactful cameo, the 21-year-old once again proved why he is one of the best prospects for the club's future.

Being subbed in the 76th minute, Torre didn't take much time to mark his presence, scoring his first goal of the night minutes later. On top of that, the Spanish prodigy completed his brace soon, further restoring FC Barcelona's 4-goal lead after they had conceded a goal in the 87th minute. Be it the midfielder's finish in his first goal or his placement in the second one, Torre stood ecstatic, showing he could be an ideal number 10 for the club going forward.
