What 73,290 people witnessed at Camp nou, during Barcelona - Celtic clash, was a pure confluence of excellency and perfection.. Barcelona literally, thrashed Celtic 7-0 and records their biggest ever win in CL.
Messi nets 3 goals and got ahead in the race for most ever hat-trick in champions league with 6 under his hood.. Neymar scored a brilliant free kick.. Iniesta scored his first goal in 4 seasons of champions league.. Last he scored was also against Celtic.. Suarez scored twice..
Within 3 minutes in the match Neymar assisted Messi, who was in the zone.. Messi ran a few steps and rifled into the net.. In the 22nd minute Celtic got the chance to score the level (and may be prevent the eventual thrashing) when Dembele was awarded a penalty kick because of Ter-Stegen unintentional dive to catch the ball. Ter-stegen was shown yellow card for this but the only saving grace that could've came with this penalty ultimately refused by Ter-stegen.. This was the only moment where Celtic looks competitive.
When the clock reads 27th minute, Messi scored his second goal which was a pure example of coordination. Neymar and Messi makes their way through the defenders and goalkeeper with their one-two passes in penalty area before Messi just slides the ball in...
10 minutes before the hour mark Messi was fouled.. Neymar took the free kick which flies past de vries.. Just a minute before hour mark Iniesta scored his long awaited goal from a wonderful volley. It was Iniest's first goal in for CL seasons. A minute later Messi scored his treble and became the first player to score 6 hat-trick in CL..
When it seems all for Celtic, Barcelona had other plan which include Suarez this time... Suarez scored two goals to make the humiliation even worse for Celtic.. It was Celtic's biggest defeat in CL history..
On the other matches Arsenal contained PSG for 1-1 draw, Bayern, as usual, began their campaign with style beating FC Rostov 5-0..
