Watch: Barcelona star nets brace on international duty

Footage of Barcelona star Raphinha adding to his tally for the campaign by way of two goals on the international front has come to the fore online.

Wide-man Raphinha was for his part afforded his latest start for Brazil in the early hours of Wednesday.

And, en route to an eventual 4-0 rout for Dorival’s troops against Peru, the former Leeds United man played a leading role.

Raphinha, in fact, notched both of Brazil’s first two goals.

The 27-year-old provided a reminder of his abilities from the penalty spot en route to as much, first stepping up to slot home from 12 yards with 38 minutes on the clock:

And he was back at it again on the other side of the interval, adding a 2nd spot-kick of the clash to put the Seleção two goals to the good:

Raphinha, for his part, will no doubt be eager to carry such goalscoring form back into proceedings at club level this weekend, as Barcelona prepare to play host to Sevilla in a La Liga clash on Sunday night.
