BARCELONA, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Barcelona ⁠captain Raphinha scored twice as his side thrashed Feyenoord 5-1 ⁠in their opening Champions League fixture on Wednesday, while Ermedin ‌Demirovic struck a 12-minute first-half hat-trick to give VfB Stuttgart a 3-1 victory over Viking Stavanger.

Barcelona made a flying start in torrential rain in the Catalan capital, as ​Raphinha left two defenders sprawling before finishing ⁠with a left-footed flourish in ⁠the third minute.

Karim Adeyemi put Barca 2-0 ahead with a curling ⁠effort ‌in the 22nd minute and Raphinha grabbed his second from a defence-splitting pass by Pedri in the 57th minute.

Lamine Yamal ⁠added the fourth in the 77th minute, firing ​a free kick ‌through a gap in the Feyenoord wall from the edge of ⁠the box.

Feyenoord’s ​consolation goal came in the 82nd minute as Sem Steijn sneaked in behind the defence to score, but Gabriel Jesus came on and netted with ⁠his first touch, glancing a header backwards ​into the net.

In Stuttgart, Demirovic opened the scoring after 20 minutes with a touch at the near post, but Viking, making their first appearance ⁠in the Champions League group phase, were level two minutes later when Zlatko Tripic finished a swift counter-attack with his left foot.

Demirovic quickly re-established the lead in the 26th minute and then completed the ​hat-trick with a hooked volley six minutes ⁠later.

Later on Wednesday, holders Paris St Germain begin the defence of their ​title against Slovan Bratislava from Slovakia while ‌last season’s runners-up Arsenal are at ​Napoli.
