Lionel Messi scored two goals in 12-minutes to give Barcelona a huge advantage going into the second leg of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16.

The game was deadlocked at 0-0 until the 71st minute when Arsenal had no answers to a fast break from Barcelona.

The big three all had a hand in the goal, with Luis Suarez streaking down the left before passing to Neymar who found an unmarked Messi in the centre for an easy goal by his standards.

Arsenal’s hopes of any comeback in front of their home supporters was quashed when Mathieu Flamini took down Messi in the penalty box. Messi made no mistake giving his Spanish team the 2-0 away win.
