The Ligue 1 side will take on the Catalans in France on Tuesday and the 22-year-old believes they can compete with the Liga giants
Maxwel Cornet says Lyon are 100 per cent focused on Tuesday night's Champions League encounter with Barcelona, admitting the Liga giants are "something else".
Lyon qualified in second place of Group F, finishing behind Manchester City, and have been rewarded with a last-16 tie against Barca.
They have been enjoying a solid season in the French domestic league, sitting third in Ligue 1, although Paris Saint-Germain are 16 points ahead of them after only losing once.
