It took Dybala just seven minutes to open the scoring, curling home a low shot from the edge of the six-yard box.
He then doubled the Italian champion's advantage when he struck again, angling a first-time shot beyond Marc-André ter Stegen from outside the penalty area.
Barcelona pushed in search of an away goal but conceded again in the second-half, as Giorgio Chiellini climbed above Javier Mascherano at a corner to head home.

What a win for the Italian champions! Paulo Dybala's brace put them in control before half-time, with Giorgio Chiellini making sure of the win in the second-half. Barcelona were poor and now they need a second successive miracle if they are to come from behind to progress to the next round.
