Messi and Iniesta heaped the pressure onto the Roma defence forcing De Rossi into an incredible own-goal to open the scoring.

Barcelona take the lead after the Italians suffered a stroke of bad luck. The Roma midfielder turned towards his own goal in an attempt to intercept a pass from Iniesta to Messi.

Whilst attempting to clear the ball, De Rossi managed to divert the pass past his own goalkeeper to put Barcelona ahead in the first-half of the Champions League clash.
