How to lock screen with keyboard shortcut on mac book pro 2016 (which doesn't have power/eject button)?

I have been trying to figure this out but resorted to setting up a "hot corner" to sleep my screen.


Thanks,

Power button.

The button at the far end of the Touch bar strip serves as Power button and the Touch ID button.
