Champions League: Lionel Messi Leads Barcelona To 4-2 Match Win Over Tottenham

Tottenham found Barcelona as a tough team they can not get a point out of as they were hunbled at home by Spaniard visitors which won 2-4 in their Champions League group stage match. 

Argentine forward Lionel Messi showed his brilliance during the match and was instrumental to the team's victory against the English side which could not handle his combination with Suarez and Coutinho.

The hosts stood no chance with La Liga defending champions which dictated the game well enough over them, netting their opening goal from former Liverpool midfielder Philippe Coutinho, who drilled a shot through to the post in just 2nd minutes.  

Spurs soon conceded the second when Messi stirred up frontline with a pass to Suarez before the ball found its way to Rakitic who volleyed a shot home before Harry Kane got a goal in for Tottenham with a well directed right footed shot from inside the area in the second half. 

Messi responded with the third goal for Barcelaona followed by Erik Lamela smashing a shot from 20-yard to reduce the deficit for Tottenham. 

On the brink of full time, Messi completed the victory, dashing the ball through to the net after Suarez got an pass through to him in the centre of the box.

Having lost the second group stage match, Tottenham are in difficult situation as they and PSV Eindhoven are in the bottom of the group with a point as Barcelona and Inter Milan lead with apiece.
