Sporting 2-5 Barcelona Highlights

November 26th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Champions League

Barcelona defeated Sporting Lisbon in a match between the two teams that have already qualified from their group.

Lionel Messi delivered a cross from the right for Thierry Henry to open the scoring from close range.

Gerard Pique doubled the Spanish team’s advantage after Sporting failed to clear a cross that took a deflection off Eidur Gudjohnsen.

Messi extended Barca’s lead after the break before a spell of three goals in as many minutes.

Miguel Veloso scored a free-kick and Liedson made it 3-2 before Marco Caneira put the ball into his own net to end any hopes of a spectacular fightback.

Bojan Krkic completed the scoring from the penalty spot after 73 minutes after he had been fouled by Rui Patricio, who saw red for his challenge.
