On the the stroke of half time Barcelona made it 3-1,courtesy of Gerard Pique’s goal

He found space in the area to control with his right foot and send a left-foot shot past Meret.

Aubameyang made it four from Adama’s low cross from the right and when De Jong ran over the ball the former Gunner jogged on to it and clipped it precisely into the top corner.

Napoli made scored twice,thanks to Insigne penalty and Politano’s late strike,but were not enough to keep the side in the competition.

The Catalans seal a 5-3 victory on aggregate thanks to a thumping 4-2 win as they advance to the last sixteen.
