Barcelona president Sandro Rosell has declared Bayern Munich the best team in Europe.
Bayern thumped Barca 3-0 at the Nou Camp to reach the Champions League final 7-0 on aggregate.
Rosell said: "The first thing I need to do is congratulate Bayern, they were clearly the superior side in the tie. We have reached the semi-finals for six consecutive years. I am very proud of what these players have done.
"Perhaps the aggregate score is a bit exaggerated but that doesn't mean that they were not superior. I believe this Bayern are the strongest team in Europe and they have a good chance of winning the final."
