Gerard Pique: 'You cannot stop Lionel Messi'

Barcelona defender Gerard Pique claims that the Spanish side "are so lucky" to have Lionel Messi following the Argentine's double against Bayern Munich on Wednesday.

Barcelona centre-back Gerard Pique has hailed Lionel Messi following Wednesday's Champions League semi-final first leg against Bayern Munich.

Messi scored twice in the latter stages before Neymar added a third for the home side, who also kept a clean sheet.

Pique has insisted that the tie is not done and dusted, but has backed his team to score in the second leg next week.

"You cannot stop Messi, he scored two fantastic goals, especially the second. We are so lucky to have him. We will go to Munich to score a goal and to win, which is the only thing Barca know how to do," Pique told UEFA.com.

Bayern did not have a single shot on target at Camp Nou.
