Barcelona knock Manchester City out of Champions League

Ivan Rakitic struck the only goal as a
Lionel Messi-inspired Barcelona sealed a place in the last-eight of the
Champions League with a 1-0 victory
over Manchester City.
The
Argentine has been in blistering
form for the Catalan side and he
delighted the home fans in a packed
Nou Camp, relentlessly teasing the
City players with his party tricks as
Barca completed a 3-1 aggregate
victory.
It is the second straight year that City have been knocked out by Barcelona at this stage and it means there will be no English representative in the
quarter-finals of Europe's elite
competition.
Elsewhere, Carlos Tevez scored twice
and set up another as Juventus
crushed Borussia Dortmund 3-0 to also seal progress to the Champions
League quarter-finals for only the
second time since 2006 with a 5-1
aggregate victory.
Results:
Barcelona 1-0 Manchester City
Borussia Dortmund 0-3 Juventus
