'A glorious night for Messi'
Spurs 2-4 Barcelona

Ex-Chelsea midfielder on BBC Radio 5 live
The Spurs fans have seen their team give everything to try and claw their way back from a two-goal deficit.
Everybody when they are walking away will all be saying 'wow' - if they haven't seen Lionel Messi before in the flesh, the craft, the cunning, the sheer technical quality that he has.
His football brain is twice the size of anyone else's out there. You've seen his speed, work-rate, willingness to take the ball in all sorts of areas and then you've seen his sheer cutting edge, which makes him what he is. It was a real honour and privilege to see Lionel Messi tonight.
He had absolutely everything in his game tonight. It was fabulous. The night belonged to Barcelona but in particular Messi, he was glorious.
"We are always confident because we trust our players, and we never give up,"--- said boss Mauricio Pochettino.
