But Robert Lewandowski’s late double ensured that Barcelona could live to fight another day.

However, Xavi’s side face an uphill task of needing to beat table topping Bayern – who they have already lost to in this campaign.

And the Catalonians will also need to hope that rock-bottom Viktoria Plzen somehow manages to pull off a shock result in Milan.
