Trailing 1-0 from last week’s first leg at Old Trafford, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men started brightly in front of a packed house in Catalonia – and it could have been a different story if Marcus Rashford’s effort had found the net and not hit the crossbar in the opening 40 seconds. But two goals in the space of four first-half minutes from Barca captain Messi put the hosts firmly in control of the tie, before Philipe Coutinho's strike in the second half sealed their progression to the semi-finals.
Solskjaer, returning to the scene of his best moment as a player 20 years ago when he scored the winner against Bayern Munich to clinch our unprecedented Treble, named an attacking line-up which boasted four changes from Saturday’s 2-1 home win against West Ham.
