Barcelona sent out a warning to their UEFA Champions League rivals with a 7-0 thrashing of Scottish side Celtic in their Group C opener on Tuesday.

Lionel Messi bagged a hat-trick to go with goals from Neymar, the evergreen Andres Iniesta and a Luis Suarez double.

Bayern Munich were also big winners on the night as they thumped Russian side FC Rostov 5-0. Robert Lewandowski scored a penalty, while Thomas Muller, Juan Bernat and Joshua Kimmich (two) also found the back of the net.

Arsenal fought back for a point after going behind to Paris St Germain inside 43 seconds as Edison Cavani netted. Alexis Sanchez equalised 12 minutes from time.

Polish striker Arkadiusz Milik scored twice as Napoli won 2-1 at Dynamo Kiev.
