Barcelona 5-1 Lyon: Messi involved in 4 goals to send Catalans into last 8
Lionel Messi was brilliant as Barcelona beat Lyon 5-1 to achieve the Champions League's last eight for a record twelfth progressive season. Barcelona booked a Champions League quarter-final place with a 5-1 home win against Lyon verified gratitude to Lionel Messi's inspirational execution, triumphing on total by the equivalent scoreline.
After last month's goalless first leg, Messi opened the scoring at Camp Nou from the penalty spot, with Philippe Coutinho adding a second preceding half-time in Wednesday's tie. Although Lucas Tousart started any desire for a second-half Lyon fightback, Barca held their nerve and Messi struck again before Gerard Pique and substitute Ousmane Dembele wrapped up the scoring to seal a place in the last eight, where a greater test likely is standing by.
