Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart has played down his star showing against Barcelona on Wednesday night.
The England number one made a string of world-class saves in City's 1-0 Champions League Round of 16 second leg defeat at Camp Nou which attracted plenty of attention from pundits and supporters alike.
Hart pulled off 10 saves in the loss which saw City exit Europe's top competition 3-1 on aggregate but he gave a quick reminder that he is on the pitch to do just that.
"I'm in there to make saves - tonight they hit me a lot and I just tried to be big," Hart, who was unable to stop Ivan Rakitic's lobbed effort on the 31st minute, told Sky Sports.
"It was definitely busy. I just tried to smother them as best I could because I know full well they're thinking they've got a pass at all times.
"That's maybe why I've tried to rush in for the goal. But he took it well."
