Lionel Messi came up just short of matching Cristiano Ronaldo’s hat-trick a day earlier but still scored twice and set up 2 more as Barcelona beat Lyon 5-1 to reach the Champions League quarterfinals. After Ronaldo’s treble on Tuesday for Juventus, Messi delivered his own symphony at Camp Nou, where Lyon was outplayed except a brief period in the second half when they threatened a comeback in this last-16 tie.
