Barcelona faces a significant challenge as they brace for several weeks without their superstar striker, Robert Lewandowski, due to a hamstring injury sustained during a match against Celta.

The absence of Lewandowski, who has already scored a staggering 40 goals in all competitions this season, is undoubtedly a blow to the team's firepower. However, history suggests that the Catalan giants might just manage to hold their ground.

Under the strategic guidance of manager Hansi Flick, Barcelona has shown remarkable resilience whenever they've had to play without their prolific striker. This season, Lewandowski has missed only three matches: a key clash against Real Mallorca, a Copa del Rey bout with Real Betis, and another Copa encounter against Valencia.

Remarkably, Barcelona emerged victorious in all three matches, netting a total of 15 goals and proving they can thrive even in his absence. Against Mallorca, they delivered a stunning 5-1 victory, powered by an impressive performance from Dani Olmo and Ferran Torres.

In the Copa del Rey, they repeated this dazzling display, overwhelming Real Betis with another five-goal performance, showcasing goals from Gavi, Jules Koundé, Raphinha, and more. Lewandowski’s absence was hardly felt.

Their momentum continued against Valencia in the Copa del Rey, where Barcelona again scored five goals, led by a brilliant performance from Ferran Torres, who sparked the attack against his former club.

With key players like Olmo, Raphinha, and emerging talent Lamine Yamal stepping up, Barcelona is poised to maintain their offensive prowess. As they enter a critical stretch of matches, all eyes will be on these players to see if they can keep the team’s attacking spirit alive while Lewandowski recuperates.

Can Barcelona continue their winning streak without their star striker? The upcoming weeks will reveal whether this dynamic team can sustain their championship chase in La Liga and beyond.
