VIDEO - Lionel Messi's goal against Bayern Munich: Where does it rank in the FIFA Puskás Award ?

 
Lionel Messi produced another masterclass to help Barcelona to a 3-0 victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League semi-final first leg in the Nou Camp.
 
Messi opened the scoring with a thumping strike from outside the box and grabbed the assist for Neymar's stoppage-time strike too.

However, it was his second goal that had everyone talking as he left Jerome Boateng slumped on the ground before lofting the ball over the great Manuel Neuer with his right foot.

Bartomeu: "We want to win all six trophies next season"

Barça club president Josep Maria Bartomeu spoke at a presentation ceremony for the Bill and Melinda Gates Fund, giving his thoughts on last season: "It was fantastic for us, a marvellous season, the best in our history. We won everything and with great statistics too."

"It was the second time we have won the treble - La Liga, Champions League, Copa del Rey - and all of the city was very content and happy."


He also spoke on the objectives for the new season: "This year we intend to work with the same team, but also with players who can give us more competition inside the squad, like Arda and Vidal."
"In our opinion, our team is going to be more competitive. This year we have to go for six trophies and we want to win them all. It is not going to be easy, but we are going to try and do it."
