Messi doubled Barca’s advantage in the 61st minute by curling an unstoppable shot pass the keeper, making it 2-0.
8 minutes later, Messi completed his hat-trick with a close range finish to put the home side in the driving seat.
Luis Enrique’s men were also reduced to 10 men in the 73rd minute when Jeremy Mathieu was shown a second yellow card for 2 bookable offences. But, that didn’t stop the Catalans from grabbing their 4th goal of the match.
Neymar, who missed a penalty in the 87 minute, scored in the dying seconds to wrap up the victory in a humiliating evening for City boss Pep Guardiola, who is now winless in 4 matches.
