Barcelona went into last night's Champions League last 16 tie with AC Milan 2-0 down from the first leg with many thinking their chances of progressing were less than favourable considering their recent form.

However, anyone who was a fan of Papal Conclaves and Barcelona knew that there could be only one outcome. The two previous games which Barca had played during the election of a pope had both ended 4-0 to the Catalan team. Those games were against Real Madrid in 1958 and Las Palmas in 1978.

They kept that amazing stat going with last night's 4-0 thrashing of Milan.
