Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde declared Leo Messi "extraordinary" after their Champions League rout of PSV Eindhoven.

Messi hit a hat-trick for the 4-0 win.

"He does extraordinary things and makes them seem routine," said Valverde.

"Today it was three goals, and he unlocked the match with his freekick.

"The strike was masterful and he simply doesn't tire of scoring hat-tricks."

The result was far more comfortable than most could have imagined, however Los Cules' defence did a fine job of keeping the Mexican quiet when the visitors attacked.

"I'm satisfied with the 4-0, it's a normal result [when you look at how the match progressed]," he intimated.

"They played well on the counter attack and we knew it would be difficult to get the first goal.

"After the second goal we were calmer and found things easier, it's always difficult to open teams up at first."
