Muller
Barcelona crashed out of the Champions League following a 3-0 defeat at Bayern Munich on Wednesday, failing to make it past the group stage of the competition.
"Messi is one of the best players on the planet, also in the last 100 years." Muller said.
The German star scored two goals to lead his team to achieve a remarkable 8-2 win over Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final.
Barcelona manager Quique Setién preferred to count on a 4_4_2 formation and decided to keep Antoine Griezmann on the bench.
Messi equaled Gerd Muller’s long-standing record of the player with most goals with one club in the top five European Leagues.
Germans kept their habit of beating England in knockout stage matches where English important victories over Germany were only in WW2 and in 1966 final.
