Lionel Messi was author of two terrific goals in a stunning first half against Bayern: he said that even after inflicting Bayern’s equal heaviest margin of defeat in Europe, the job is barely half done.
Man of the Match Messi told uefa.com: “We went out with the intention of settling this match as quickly and efficiently as possible and I think we patently achieved that. Our tactic was to play with a high tempo, to pressurise Bayern all the time and to score sufficient goals to take full advantage of the first leg being at home”.
“But we didn’t need the coach to put our feet on the ground again at the end because we all know that a game in Germany against a club like Bayern, who have top level players, will be difficult. In our minds nothing is settled.”
