FC Barcelona qualified for the next round of Copa del Rey with a 12-1 aggregate victory over Huesca. The tie was more or less sealed in the first leg when we won 5-0 away from home. But that didn't stop the young turks of Barca from going for the kill.
Barcelona Futbol Club has been paired once again with Manchester City at this season's UEFA Champions League Round of 16 knock-out stage. It's a repeat of last season's face-off, in which a Messi inspired Barca energed comfortable winners. Manchester City struggled through the Group stage but that should not be taken on face value, as on their day they could be quite devastating. Many Cules are actually angry at the constant tough luck being presented on Barca. Once again we got the toughest draw whereas the two Spanish teams from Capita got relatively easier opponents, incidently both German. Schalke vs Real Madrid will be once again a repeat of last season's knowck out stage, and barring any miracle Schalke could get murdered again. Meanwhile Atletico got the other German team, Bayern Leverkusen - a macth they should win without much sweat.
Just days after becoming the Leading scorer in La Liga history, Lionel Messi did the same in UEFA Champions League - becoming the leading scorer in the Competitions History. Prior to the match he was tied with Raul for the top spot.
