Before the season started, the newly appointed captain of the Barca 2018/19 squad, Lionel Messi, took the microphone in his hand and addressed the Camp Nou faithful straight on.

He said that he and the rest of the Barcelona squad had unfinished business to attend to in the Champions League and that he promises to do everything in his power to bring that beautiful cup back to the Camp Nou.

What he did today was just another day at the office for the G.O.A.T.

A sweet-sweet freekick from outside the box just over the wall and out of the reach of the away side keeper. Both of his other goals came late into the second half when he moved brilliantly inside the box and controlled a pass from above the opposition defense to slam home the goals.

With 6 shots, 4 on target and 3 goals, Messi has shown that he meant whatever he said to the fans and that he would bring the club it's 6th Champions League title.
