Messi Goes Past Ronaldo In UCL Group Stage Goals Ranking

Messi broke the deadlock in the 32nd minute at the Nou Camp with an immaculately struck free kick.

"It's a blessing to have Messi in your side and a problem for anyone that doesn't [have him]", he said.

"Messi does extraordinary things and makes them look routine", Barca coach Ernesto Valverde said.

"This game was tough for us at first, which is normal since this is the Champions League and it's the first game", Rakitic said. "We're seeing something unique, something that hasn't been seen in many years".

Firmino was named on the bench, and in his absence Liverpool gave home fans something to cheer about with two first-half goals to take control of the game, courtesy of Daniel Sturridge and a penalty from James Milner. He received the ball from Croatia's Ivan RAKITIC and from inside the area slotted it passed the goalkeeper for Barcelona's third of the night. "I hope he goes on like this forever and scores many more goals", the midfielder told reporters after the game, via Sport.

Dembele wonderfully turned two PSV players before running into space and unleashing a right-footed effort that beat the outstretched arm of Zoet, who was soon picking the ball out of his net again, as Barca finished with a flourish.

As reported by TransferMarketWeb, Hirving Lozano has confirmed that Barcelona were in touch with his agent in the summer transfer window before adding that it would be a dream to play for the club. "He's got that continuity in the side now, which is helping, but he has earned that".

"But we still expect more from him". "I dream of one day playing at Barça, but for now I think only of PSV". "It's odd to me that he does not win the Ballon d'Or every single year".

If the World Cup proved anything, however, it is that Messi can not do it alone and Barcelona Messi will need others to shine if they are to end their Champions League hiatus.

This is in stark contrast to Barcelona's arch-rivals Real Madrid who have won four of the last five titles including a record three-peat.
