Champions League semi-final first-leg facts, stats

• FC Barcelona's 3-0 win over FC Bayern München was the Catalan club's biggest victory in a UEFA Champions League semi-final since they defeated FC Porto by the same scoreline at home in a one-legged last-four tie in 1993/94.

• It is the first time Barcelona have ever won the first leg of a UEFA Champions League semi-final at the Camp Nou. Indeed, they failed to score in each of their previous three attempts – against Real Madrid CF in 2001/02 (0-2), Manchester United FC in 2007/08 (0-0) and Chelsea FC in 2008/09 (0-0).

• Barça's victory was their ninth in succession in the competition – one shy of the record held jointly by Bayern and Real Madrid. However, it has already equalled the record for most consecutive wins during a single season, which the Catalans themselves set in 2002/03.

• Lionel Messi's double enabled the Blaugrana forward to leapfrog Cristiano Ronaldo, a scorer 24 hours earlier for Madrid against Juventus, at the top of both this season's UEFA Champions League goal charts (ten to nine) and the all-time list of the competition's leading marksmen (77 to 76).

• Xavi Hernández's introduction as a substitute for Barcelona against Bayern kept him level with Madrid's Iker Casillas at the head of the UEFA Champions League's all-time top appearances list on 149 apiece. With Barcelona up first in the semi-final second legs, the midfielder will have the opportunity to pip his fellow Spaniard to the milestone of 150.

• Should Barcelona go through to the final, Messi is set to make his 99th UEFA Champions League outing in Berlin.

• Bayern came back from a 3-1 deficit to dispatch Porto in the quarter-finals but no team in UEFA Champions League history have ever recovered arrears of 3-0 in a knockout phase tie. Only on one occasion have a side won a tie after losing the first leg by a three-goal margin – RC Deportivo La Coruña against AC Milan in the 2003/04 quarter-finals (1-4 away, 4-0 at home).

• Juventus's victory over Madrid was their fifth out of six in the home leg of a UEFA Champions League semi-final. On each of the previous four occasions when they triumphed in Turin – in 1994/95, 1996/97, 1997/98 and 2002/03 – they went on to reach the final. Conversely, the one time they did not win at home, against Manchester United in 1998/99 (2-3), they were eliminated.

• For the third time in four seasons both semi-final first legs were won by the hosts, the sole exception during that period being the 0-0 draw between Club Atlético Madrid and Chelsea in 2013/14. The last time the visitors won the first leg was in 2010/11, when both Manchester United (at FC Schalke 04) and Barcelona (at Real Madrid) claimed 2-0 victories.
