Barcelona chief Zubi: How can Messi be sad?

Barcelona chief Andoni Zubizaretta was full of pride over their Champions League triumph against AC Milan. Barca overturned a 2-0 deficit to reach the quarterfinals 4-2 on aggregate.

"I am very happy for the fans, the players, coaches and everyone else," smiled Zubi.

"It's one of those nights when you say you were here."

On Lionel Messi, he continued: "Just look at the way he played. How can he be sad? The pressure he put the opponents under, how he has been able to find space and time in a position that is not the best for him.

"We must enjoy Leo and the football he plays with Barcelona, because one day he will be gone."
