It took 71 minutes for a goal in Tuesday's round of 16 clash between Barcelona and Arsenal, but come it did as Lionel Messi found the back of the net on a counter-attack after some sweet combination play with Luis Suarez and Neymar.
Andres Iniesta breathed life into the play as he found Neymar out wide on the left. Neymar then found Suarez, who gave the ball back to the Brazilian before a sweet pass to the Argentine magician.
And, as a side note, it's Messi's first-ever goal against goalkeeper Petr Cech.
