Muller makes Barcelona suffer once more after breaking German Champions League record

Thomas Muller clearly enjoys big Champions League clashes against Barcelona, scoring yet again in a match against the Catalans in a landmark appearance for the Bayern Munich stalwart.

Muller, 30, started for the Bavarians on Friday in their quarter-final clash in Lisbon's Estadio da Luz, as they vied with Barca for a place in the semi-finals of the European competition.

It was the forward's 113th Champions League appearance, setting a new German record ahead of former Bayern team-mate Philipp Lahm.
