FOOTBALL: Barcelona striker Lionel Messi became the first player in Champions League history to score five goals in a single match as the holders ran riot at Camp Nou against Bayer Leverkusen last night. Barca romped to a 7-1 victory, securing a 10-2 aggregate win and a place in the last eight, which also featured two goals from Cristian Tello. Meanwhile, APOEL Nicosia became the first Cypriot team to reach the last eight by beating Lyon 4-3 on penalties following last night’s 1-0 win.
