The Day Kevin De Bruyne Destroyed Lionel Messi & Barcelona

thanks gary good evening everybody out come the two teams two weeks removed from barcelona's four-nil win in spain since then they've won both league games despite a growing injury list and arrive here needing a point to reach the last 16 again [Music] big friends off the bench but rivals on it they go back a long way with barcelona and spain enrique was in charge of the bt while guardiola was dominating with the absentees they are the smallest defense here's neymar the first messi starting off out there on the right-hand side the position he occupies so often and suarez has made a little run [Applause] city did have good possession and good spells in the camp now and aguero is flagged off side i think he thought he was offside because he was having a look around and the flag went up as it does when he took a touch on the ball and talk about football bus gets looking to play it through towards suarez and [Music] there's messi [Applause] messi uh stood out there there's a chance for the city breakaway here with sterling and he's caught by lucas dean and victor kassai with the first decision of the match to make sterling gets up there's neymar who wanted to start with and then could set barcelona on the left so suarez and messi for the moment have swapped positions victor has been a bit leading until both of them got away from lucasfilm and kevin de bruyne is coming in and so is raheem sterling it's a good position for manchester city there's contact but it's going to be a yellow card for sterling and not a penalty touch from sterling just takes it away from um tt just goes over raheem sterling very impressive at the hawthorns against west bromwich albion on the weekend didn't give any player on the pitch and you might say what he should do he's in gold city of centre ottomandi and stones up for the free kick she's delivered by david silva and he's got de bruyne and aguero making runs into the boxes sergey roberto is making a really good run from right back and suarez it's so heavy from rockets who then followed through and it's a yellow card for the barcelona midfield player the letter can follow in and look through aguero andre gomes and suarez are up there with him messi's got there too here's messi oh he started it and then he finished it and barcelona hit manchester city on the counter attack and lead one-nil [Applause] he's just so patient just waiting great ball there messi it's just sublime barcelona make it look so easy on the counter attack it's a brilliant counter attack city far too open [Applause] played really well for 20 minutes they did in barcelona but again they get caught well louis enrique can celebrate because he knows that his side have been under pressure for the opening 21 and a half he's got a bit of space too here's aguero and he was looking to feather one in towards raheem sterling [Applause] shouts down by andre gomes lionel messi in towards andre gomes and uh roberto's up from right back messi's going to go the other way towards andre gomes it's not very often you could decide in a lot of space neymar is going to go himself maybe and the angle was just a little bit tight and i think that little touch off john stones helped take it wide it's gonna be a yellow car for neymar as well just uh left the leg hanging out a sterling tractor by the way so far tonight but kevin de bruyne is going to have a go with this one color off making a run it's too deep for color off and for stones the worst case scenario for manchester city here's andre gomes fantastic feat looking to pick out suarez breaks to neymar still neymar blocked by stones who was in the right place at the right time messi on the follow up somehow gets it in and then suarez can't bend himself backwards enough and guy gets to suarez suarez with a shot blocked by stones again that's a terrific look we'd love to see a city player stand next to him stand still as well wonderful touched by neymar to andre gomes willow and just how often the ball's going out of play doesn't seem to be very often there's a mistake though and he presents a chance for sterling who tees up good and there's the barcelona mistake punished by manchester city that's a terrific goal for manchester city that's why you press the ball that's a poor ball never play square in yo now terrific play from aguero that ball from sterling there's a stunner and i said before kundalin needs to make runs fall for midfield he gambles pretty well weighted ball and a terrific goal for manchester city well there's a taste of their own medicine for barcelona the kind of situation they capitalized on so often david silva teasing up for fernandinho and then aguero all it needed was a touch city looked devastating on the counter attack again winning the ball in midfield [Applause] we've got a game on now zabaleta defended by dean throw into manchester gliding forward for barcelona still gliding forward fernandinho attracts him brilliantly and made a fantastic tackle what a player fernandinho is messi a full place fernandinho gets across lovely ball by uh de bruyne to zabaleta the last touch off mascherano [Music] looked into walter and andinio who put it back in cersei roberto with a square ball to busquets which was where the city goal came from in the first half and sterlington again here heavy touch and he's hit the side netting and he could have taken it first time but history almost repeats itself sergi roberto square to busquets and manchester city were in unbelievable here they come again with sergio aguero who struck it nicely messi by gomes let's make the run through the middle [Applause] still aguero and now silver and bus gets his foul him and that's a free kick and it's a free-kick in a very good position here for manchester city plenty of bodies of their own in this barcelona wall just to try and block the view of to stage it's kevin de bruyne it's absolutely brilliant as well kevin de bruyne with a huge goal for manchester city superbly dispatched then manchester city leads barcelona 2-1 and they deserve that city they've been exceptional blocked the vision of ter sagan that's the goalkeeper's corner he needs to do better not sure he can see it no city players obscure his vision but technically terrific free-kick from de bois nut and they deserve that city terrific take well they deserve that city and played very well very positive the start of this second half he's the one player needs to get more in the game shows his quality [Applause] pep guardiola knew didn't he the moment it left his right boot i've got another set piece here which is delivered into the box by the brighter and almost worked its way through to autumn ending who can't believe he didn't get a touch after the international break messi loses out this to andre gomes lionel messi looking to tease what it is a good ball towards rakitic he just ran away from it over this latest free-kick it's going to be david silva and it was into a really good area and sergio aguero got their highest i think they've got barcelona on the right now they might get it now from suarez zabaleta's in there and the ricochet colour off in towards de bruyne didn't get there another one of those agonizing moments for manchester city aguero couldn't get there either but the best chance of all was for kevin de bruyne again sergey roberto really struggled this evening did the first bit really well suarez away from lots of ending tease up andre gomes hits the bar well it was another chance created from a manchester city mistake and then a moment of brilliance from louis suarez initially unbelievable defending from stones kevin de bruyne he was flat-footed to steagan and it didn't quite bend quickly enough and he's waiting for silva and he's still waiting for silva the groiner sterling's offside flag went up straight away still he didn't know i think he meant it for double sterling coming off [Music] and the flying machine jesus coming heaven deployed it spots the runner pacifist now that's [Music] [Applause] manchester city 3-1 and they deserve it they've been exceptional in this second half just look at this way to pass another he's on side brilliant just see takes a deflection [Applause] [Music] at the right time and they deserve that city 3-1 dominating this second half [Applause] manchester city less than 14 minutes away from just gets in towards neymar the flags up [Applause] certainly roberto cena went straight to kevin de bruyne pokes one in here to aguero who's on side [Music] it's messy and the wall does its job for manchester city messi fernando is in there quickly the ball breaks no to suarez and then there's the final chance for manchester city with a standing ovation here and deservedly so for kevin de bruyne who's been instrumental tonight away from a famous famous night in the champions league messi on the move and he got there as well wasn't the cleanest of contacts though the full-time whistle goes and it's a famous famous night for manchester city in the champions league the first victory is for pep guardiola as a coach against barcelona two goals tonight for ilkai kundawa who was exceptional in midfield a stunning free free-kick from kevin de bruyne all part of a fantastic all-round team performance from manchester city messi got a goal in the first half but it was a peripheral figure in the second
