Roma goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny admits that his side "played against a team from another planet" after Barcelona romped to a 6-1 Champions League win on Tuesday evening.
Szczesny was powerless to stop the Catalan side running riot at Camp Nou, with Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez both netting braces to give Luis Enrique's men a dominant win.
And, speaking to BT Sport afterwards, Szczesny revealed that he was in awe of Barca's attacking performance.
"It was beautiful to watch because we played against a team from another planet," he said.
"I was in goal playing for Roma but I appreciated what I saw from Barcelona. They were ridiculously good. As hard as it is to lose 6-1 it was beautiful to watch."
Despite the crushing defeat at the European champions, Roma remain second in Group E, level on points with third-placed Bayer Leverkusen heading into the final matchday.
