Barcelona has one of the most loyal and massive fan bases around the globe. La Blaugrana have their fans spread to each and every corner of the world, and it's no secret that Barcelona is one of the most supported football teams in the world.

All these fans might be gloating after Barca's dominant victory over Liverpool, but somewhere in their hearts, they will be thinking about the horrendous scenes from last season.

Lionel Messi and company defeated AS Roma comfortably at the Camp Nou before witnessing a historic comeback in Italy, as Roma defeated Braca 3-0 to advance on away goals.

Liverpool will be hoping for a similar outcome as they look to overcome the 3 goal deficit and reach the final of the UEFA Champions League.
