Liverpool fans will be told not to get carried away with the result, although we would argue the point of being a supporter is to get totally carried away by these kinds of things.

Barca picked a strong squad, starting with Messi, Mascherano, Arda Turan, Busquets and one Luis Suarez, who greeted some former teammates and was given a rousing reception by his former fans:

In reality, Barcelona were very rusty: it is extremely strange to see Busquets be robbed in midfield in such fashion.
