Lionel Messi said it is Barcelona's "obligation" to fight for every trophy after they overturned a 2-0 first-leg deficit against Sevilla to advance to the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.
The Blaugrana thrashed Sevilla 6-1 at the Camp Nou on Wednesday to ease through their quarter-final clash, with Messi completing the rout with the final goal in the 90th minute.
On January 23 at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan, Messi was left out of the squad as a much-changed side lost 2-0 in the opening leg.
At the time, some speculated going out of the competition would not be such a bad thing for Barca's La Liga and UEFA Champions League hopes:
Andy WestBarça really shouldn't be too bothered at all if they don't come back against Sevilla next week.
