    Record 1,20,000 crowd witness Barca defeating Juventus

    A capacity crowd at home always gives the best feeling to the home team. The record for Barca's highest attendance at Camp Nou is 1,20,000. It took place in March 1986, when they took on Italy's Juventus in the home leg of the European Cup quarter-final. The crowd went home happy as Barca edged past Juventus 1-0, courtesy Julio Alberto's 81st-minute strike.

    Lionel Messi: The goal-scoring God of Barcelona

    When it comes to Barca's goal-scoring machine, the one and only name that comes to the mind is the Little Magician, Lionel Messi. Messi currently has scored 603 goals for the club to date and looks well on course to increase the tally to 650 in the upcoming seasons. No other current player is even close to breaking his record. All hail Messi!

    Xavi: The most reliable man

    Besides scoring goals, another important element of the game is to play regularly and in a consistent fashion. The record for the most number of appearances for the club stands with mid-fielder Xavi, who played 767 games across competitions. Having played for 17 seasons at the club, he is one of Barca's all-time greats, while Messi (687) might possibly go past his record.
