Messi became the headache for the Van Dijk, Gomez and Robertson during the game. Lionel Messi free-kick was remarkable addition in the Champions league semifinal.

Lionel Messi got chance to score a free-kick at 35-yard area. Messi took a deep breath and stick a cracker right into the goal post and Keeper had no chance to respond. But for Liverpool fan it was a harsh decision from the referee to give free-kick to Barcelona since Lionel Messi punched Fabinho right on his face and instead of giving Lionel Messi a yellow card for this aggressive act, Referee booked Fabinho and gave Barcelona a free-kick at 35 Yard area.
