One of the favorites of the Champions League, the team called "Barcelona," started the tournament with a convincing victory, according to lrytas.lt.
Playing on their own field, the Spaniards defeated the Dutch team PSV Eindhoven with a score of 4:0 (1:0), and the star of the Catalan team, 31-year-old Lionel Messi, scored three goals.
By scoring goals, L. Messi became only the second player in the Champions League to score at least one goal in 14 tournament seasons. Until then, this result had only been achieved by the star of Real Madrid, Raul. In addition, L. Messi scored three goals or more in eight matches in the Champions League, while his counterpart, the Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, has only scored in seven such matches.
