#1 'Magical' Messi steals the show once again:
Manchester United did a brilliant job of keeping Lionel Messi at bay in the first leg, but the Argentine magician cannot be kept quiet for too long. The 31-year-old scored twice in the first half to steal the tie away from the English team. He was mesmerizing to watch and had numerous opportunities to complete his hat-trick but was unlucky to not get it. The Argentine made every he did on the pitch look so easy and was toying with the Manchester United defenders.
Messi vowed to bring the prestigious European trophy back to the Camp Nou at the start of the season and seems determined to keep his promise. The Argentine looks like a man on a mission and with him in such incredible form, the Barcelona fans will be full of belief that the Champions League trophy will return to Nou Camp this time around.
