Barcelona were staring at Champions League humiliation as they went into half-time trailing Bayern Munich 4-1 in Lisbon.
Thomas Muller scored twice, with Ivan Perisic and Serge Gnabry also on target, and Barcelona s consolation came from a Bayern player too, with David Alaba netting an early own goal.
The statistics were piling up against Quique Setien s men as their night went from bad to worse, seemingly destined to tumble out at the quarter-final stage.
Not even Lionel Messi could keep the Camp Nou giants in the game, with Barcelona a defensive shambles.
