The historic photo of Messi is already on display at the Camp Nou

The image of the Argentinian celebrating the sixth goal against PSG last Wednesday has been put up at the Camp Nou a week after the comeback alongside the message 'Welcome to the Camp Nou. History happens here'

The photo of the comeback is on display at the Camp Nou. The 6-1 second leg victory against PSG has already gone down in footballing history. A few hours ago, the spectacular image of Leo Messi celebrating the sixth and final goal against the Parisians has been put up in the Camp Nou’s installations. It is there to pay homage and remember the great comeback with the message: "Welcome to the Camp Nou. History happens here".

It has only been a week since the magical photo of Leo Messi celebrating Sergi Roberto’s goal was taken but it is now on a big wall near the Palau Blaugrana and the Barça shop and the fans who are coming to the Barça v Valencia match will be able to see for themselves on Sunday.

The night will live long in the memory of all Barça fans anyway but now they will have a reminder every time they visit the stadium of a unique comeback win. The match will be remembered for its goals, its heroes and this magical photo.

The players and the coach were key in winning the match but so was the crowd. The Camp Nou propelled the team to victory with the fans living up to their slogan ‘Everyone behind the team’ by believing until the very end.

The international press was quick to laud the blaugranas’ achievement in securing a comeback which had never been achieved before as no team had overturned a 4-0 first leg deficit in the Champions League. This historic moment in footballing history now has its place in the Camp Nou.
