Another week of Champions League football has come and gone, gifting us plenty to dissect.

First, Tottenham vs Ajax. We ask just how good the Dutch outfit were, whether Mauricio Pochettino got his tactics wrong and if there is any hope for the second leg. Could Ajax find themselves under more pressure now that they are expected to progress?

Then on to Barcelona, where a very impressive Liverpool performance still led to a disastrous result. They can take plenty of credit but is it any solace now that their brilliant season hangs by a thread?

It was Lionel Messi’s goal that decided the encounter: given the state of the tie, was that the goal that won the Champions League? And given how dedicated Messi is to his art, is there another player in another sport who comes close to him?
