Champions League: Barcelona wary despite beating Man City





Manchester City's Champions League ambitions look all but extinguished after Lionel Messi and Dani Alves gave Barcelona victory in the last 16 first lege at Etihad stadium.

The deadlock was broken by Lionel Messi in the 54th minute , he was fouled by Mnachester City defender Martin Demichelis , who was send off for the challenge that was initially made outside the penalty area.

And despite a good response from Manchester City , Alves  delivered what is surely the decisive blow when he exchanged passes with Neymar before sliding a cool finish under City keeper Joe Hart in the final minute.

Manchester City now have a difficult second leg in the Nou Camp
