  2. What an assist from Messi! Knock on wood but even his fitness has improved tremendously. The guy can now play brilliantly for more than 90 minutes. This match was all about being patient. We could have easily been frustrated with over 70 per cent of ball possession in the first half and no goals. But we stuck together as a team and that was what took us through. Shaktar’s defence was steely, so difficult to get through and they were good on counter attack. I am glad we got through this.

  3. Where was Ibrahimovic? Thank goodness for Pedro and Bojan!
