Have you ever heard of that Lionel Messi fella? He’s a decent player.
The Argentine is frightening. Scarily good.
And, in a three-minute blitz, he put Bayern to the sword with two ridiculous finishes.
Neymar joined in in the 90th minute too to help Barcelona to a 3-0 semi final first leg win over Bayern Munich – but this night wasn’t about Neymar.
It was about Lionel bloody Messi.
It's such a joy to watch Messi. The greatest!

Not a minute with Lionel Messi we should take for granted the privilege of being able to watch him play

Where does that rank in terms of Messi's best ever games, accounting for performance, quality of opposition and context?

Anyone still arguing? He's the Messiah. I should know, I've followed a few.
