Leo Messi scored this brace as Barcelona beat Napoli 5-0 in the 2011 Gamper Trophy. Xavi Hernández then lifted the trophy.

Barcelona host Napoli in a Europa League game on Thursday. Kick off is at 18:45 CET.

Ahead of the game at the Camp Nou, we take you back to the Gamper Trophy meeting between Barcelona and Napoli at the Camp Nou in 2011. Fabregas put Barca ahead in the 25th minute and Seydou Keita added a second after half an hour. Pedro got the third just after the hour mark and then Lionel Messi struck twice in the 65th and 77th minutes  A reminder that the away goals rule does not apply in the competition so there will be extra-time and penalties if the aggregate score is the same. 

The winners of the tie will be in the draw for the last 16 which takes place on 25th February
