Barcelona cruise into the next round as Lionel Messi scored a brace against
The match was completely Barca show as they toyed with this young Ajax side. Ajax simply didn’t have the class to match up to Luis Enrique’s superstars. Leo Messi opened the scoring for the visitors in 36th minute as he took full advantage of some horrible piece of goalkeeping from Jasper Cillesen.
Luis Suarez almost scored on his return to Ajax but the Uruguayan was having an off day. Ajax were down to 10 men as Joel Veltmen committed a silly challenge and saw red. Messi scored his record breaking goal with nice tap in off a Pedro cross.
