Leo Messi: 'We played excellently'

FC Barcelona return from Wembley with three more points after the 4-2 win. Leo Messi, one of the architects of the victory, is also coming home with a smile on his face. He spoke to Movistar + after the game and said: “We played excellently.”

He added: “It is never easy to play away from home in the Champions League, but we were extraordinary in the first half. We are happy because it turned out how we wanted too. The opposition were lost at the start and we were superior.”

The Club captain recognised that the game got more complicated: “We had a little bit of bad luck with two posts and letting a goal in. Then we took the lead and they scored from a deflection. However, we got over it, we had the ball and played our game.”

Finally, the Argentinian finished by saying: “We will not leave any competition behind even though the Champions League is special. We won’t stop fighting for La Liga and the Copa del Rey.”
