Lionel Messi and co secured their semi-final spot with a hugely impressive 6-1 thrashing of Sevilla in the second leg of their quarter-final last week, overturning a 2-0 deficit from the first leg in the process. They followed that up with a less than convincing 2-2 draw at home against Valencia on Saturday as the Catalans once again had to claw themselves back from two goals down.
