At Barcelona:



Lionel Messi became the first player to score five goals (25', 42', 49', 58', 84') in a single Champions League contest as Barcelona destroyed Bayer Leverkusen (whose goalkeeper Bernd "Don't Call Me Jay" Leno is seen with that dejected look on his face) 7-1 at home in game two and completed their two-match demolition of the German club 10-2 on aggregate.
