Leo Messi aims to "go far" in Champions League

Madrid, Oct 1 (EFE).- Barcelona star striker Leo Messi said on Monday that Luis Suarez would be a great help to the team during the Champions League. The Argentinian added that they faced the European competition "eager and with excitement". A "difficult" competition, in which, Messi stressed, they wanted to go far, even though they would have to face "the best teams of the world". So far, Barcelona was not able to beat their first Champions League rival -Paris SG (3-2)- and they will have to wait until Nov. 21 to prove whether coach Luis Enrique's project is as effective in Europe as in the Spanish league.
