After Barcelona's hat-trick, Raphinha joins an elite group with Cristiano Ronaldo, drawing comparisons to Lionel Messi.

With a spectacular hat-trick in Barcelona's 4-1 triumph over Bayern Munich, Raphinha was the main attraction. With seven goals and eight assists thus far this season, the Brazilian was Hansi Flick's team's best player.

The winger is only the fourth player to record a Champions League hat-trick against the German powerhouses, and scoring three goals against Bayern Munich is no small accomplishment. The others? Sergio Aguero, Roy Makaay, and a certain Cristiano Ronaldo. It was an unforgettable evening for Bayern Munich.

After a previous attempt was disallowed for offside, Harry Kane scored to tie the game in the first half. This defeat marks the first time in Bayern's history that they have lost three straight away Champions League games. However, it was definitely a night to remember for Raphinha. Fans have nothing but praise for his performance on social media.
