Lionel Messi scored twice as Barcelona beat Bayern Munich 3-0 in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final on Wednesday.
Messi struck twice within the space of three minutes late on, before Neymar added a third in the fourth minute of stoppage time.
Bayern, who were without a number of key players, now face a big task in the second leg at the Allianz next Tuesday.
Here, Sports Mole takes a closer look at how each player performed in Barcelona.

BARCELONA
Goal
Marc-Andre ter Stegen: Did not have a single save to make, but looked confident from crosses and was excellent in possession of the ball. Still not first choice in La Liga, but remains between the sticks in this competition. (6/10)
Defence
Dani Alves: Now looks likely to remain at Camp Nou and put in a wonderful performance here. Set up Messi for the opening goal and was a constant threat down the right. Also held his ground well down the other end. (8/10)
Gerard Pique: Got booked for a rash challenge in the second period, but largely contained the Bayern attack and was also prepared to play from the back when the opportunity presented itself. (7/10)
Javier Mascherano: His performances at centre-back are still called into question, but the Argentine had another excellent game. Dealt with the threat of Robert Lewandowski and Thomas Muller in the final third. (8/10)
Jordi Alba: Not as involved in a forward sense as Alves on the opposite side, but dealt with the attacking threat from Bayern and used his incredible pace to escape a couple of dangerous situations. (7/10)
Midfield
Sergio Busquets: Typically-strong performance from the Spaniard, who was not always in the thick of things, but performed such a key role. Conceded possession on a couple of occasions, but had a strong evening. (8/10)
Ivan Rakitic: Has been a regular in the big games this season and the Croatian responded with a super performance at Camp Nou. Set up Messi for the Argentine's second and was always involved in forward areas. (8/10)
Andres Iniesta: Has been criticised in recent months, but the Spaniard now looks back to his best. Demonstrated his exceptional passing range at Camp Nou and embarked on a number of mazy dribbles. (8/10)
Attack
Neymar: Played a great supporting act throughout the night and got his name on the scoresheet late on with a super finish. Always a threat in the final third and caused Rafinha so many problems in a wide area. (8/10)
Luis Suarez: Not quite his night in front of goal. Fired a good chance over the crossbar late on, but played his part creating space in the final third and can be pleased with his performance as a whole. (7/10)
Lionel Messi: What more can be said about the Argentine? Scored two absolute stunners - the second of which was out of this world. The attacker continues to amaze and was once again the star of the show at Camp Nou. (9/10)
Substitutes
Xavi: Was introduced for the final 10 minutes and as expected, the Spaniard helped Barcelona retain possession of the ball. Might be entering the latter stages of his career, but remains such a class act. (6/10)
Rafinha: Will have been pleased to see some minutes against his brother Thiago on the opposite side. Only entered in the 87th minute, but has been a regular for the Catalan outfit this season. (6/10)
Marc Bartra: Barcelona's third change in quick succession, Bartra slotted in at centre-back for the final stages with minimum fuss. The Spaniard's introduction was more about killing time at that stage of the match. (6/10)

BAYERN
Goal
Manuel Neuer: Conceded three times, but in truth, the German kept his team in it in the first period. Made a host of super saves - including a stunning stop to deny Suarez. Quite comfortably his team's best player on the night. (8/10)
Defence
Rafinha: Found it difficult to contain Neymar down the left and was turned inside-out by his fellow Brazilian on a number of occasions. Also struggled to make his mark going forward in Spain. (6/10)
Jerome Boateng: Was a little sloppy in the early stages and was bowled over - literally - by Messi's exploits in the latter stages. Decent in possession of the ball, but really struggled when the intensity rose late on. (6/10)
Medhi Benatia: Was a shade unfortunate to pick up a yellow card in the 52nd minute and the centre-back was always wary of making a challenge from that moment. Ultimately part of a defence that struggled in the latter stages. (6/10)
Juan Bernat: Would have been keen to impress on his return to Spain, but the full-back's distribution was disappointing. Plenty of energy going forward, but looked a little lost when Barca isolated the defender. (6/10)
Midfield
Bastian Schweinsteiger: No real surprises with the German's performance, which was composed and confident. Excellent in possession, but did lack the legs required to push further forward when Bayern were in need. (7/10)
Xabi Alonso: Had an excellent chance to test Ter Stegen from a free kick early in the second period, but disappointingly hit the wall. Plenty of tidy passes, but never really threatened to take the game by the scruff of its neck. (6/10)
Phillip Lahm: Still seen as a mystery to some that the German no longer plays full-back, but his intelligence was apparent at both ends of the field. Not much goal threat, but always looked in control of matters around him. (7/10)
Thiago: Will have been an emotional night on his return to Camp Nou and the Spaniard showed some excellent touches and quick movement. Struggled defensively, however, when Barcelona came strong in the second half. (6/10)
Attack
Thomas Muller: Linked well with Lewandowski, especially in the first period, but the German's influence wavered as the match developed and he was substituted for the final 10 minutes. (6/10)
Robert Lewandowski: Had his team's golden chance in the first period, but fluffed his lines from inside the box. Lacked support for long spells, but was always dangerous as he battled Barcelona's physical centre-backs. (7/10)
Substitutes
Mario Gotze: Replaced Muller moments after Messi had opened the scoring, but Germany's hero at the 2014 World Cup struggled to make his mark during a period where Barcelona were firmly on the front foot. (6/10)
