Barcelona had already set one foot in the last 16 with one goal in the first half, and the tie was sealed. In the second half, goals by Pique and Aleix Vidal ended any possible doubts.

After Paco Alcacer gave his side the lead, Barcelona had taken a step back and had looked lethargic before the break.

However, the second half got underway and the hosts decided to put the game out of reach for Murcia. Gerard Pique scored first after Vidal's pass found him in the centre of the area.
