McDonald awed by ‘frightening’ Barca

CELTIC striker Scott McDonald is still drooling over the “frightening” firepower Barcelona had at their disposal during Wednesday’s Champions league win over the Hoops at Parkhead.

The Scottish champions lost 3-2 in the first leg of their last-16 encounter, leaving the Catalans firm favourites to go through to the quarter-finals in the return meeting at the Nou Camp on March 4.

Lionel Messi scored either side of a wonderful Thierry Henry goal to give the visitors the advantage, but the narrowness of the scoreline masked the gulf in class between the two sides.
