FC Barcelona gave a recital Wednesday, March 18 at Manchester City (1-0) in the eighth-final second leg Champions League, qualifying for quarters thanks to a Lionel Messi masterful.

For the eighth consecutive year, this is the “Barça” present in the top 8 European, a level that seems far “Citizens” overwhelmed Wednesday at the Camp Nou after having already lost 2-1 to go.

The small scale score reflects poorly absolute control of the Catalan club, who found many times the amounts and stumbled on the impeccable English goalkeeper Joe Hart. Messi, decisive passer on the opening goal from Ivan Rakitic (31 th minute of play) has meanwhile stepped up attempts without obtaining the goal that would have rewarded the evening crazy.

No doubt, this one is euphoric Barca and Messi back to a stratospheric level, which bodes well for the Catalans before the shock Sunday against Real, who led the heels of the Spanish Championship .
