"He was unbelievable in the game. We all know the quality of a player and when he's in that form he's magic to watch," Trippier said to BT Sports.
Messi ran Trippier ragged at times but it's hard to fault the 28-year-old defender because Messi is the GOAT after all.
The Barcelona skipper received adulation on social media following his 'Man of the Match' performance.
Baller. The best ever?
