After an insane night which saw the biggest comeback in football history, Lionel Messi probably just wanted to get home and take stock of what the hell just happened.
But when you're a superstar player, commuting isn't easy.
The Catalans star was mobbed by hyper fans as he tried to drive away from the Camp Nou on Wednesday night following Barcelona's stunning comeback against PSG.
Footage captured by the Barcelona star's fiancee Antonella Roccuzzo shows supporters swarming Messi's car chanting his name while attempting to snap photos of him.
Security personnel try their best to clear the road ahead of the vehicle, but they are more than outnumbered by the groups of excited fans.
While some are willing to take pictures from a distance, others want to get as close to the car as physically possible.
Barca beat Paris Saint-Germain 6-5 on aggregate to reach the last eight of the Champions League in what was something which quite simply had to be seen to be believed, but it did actually happen.
After a Luis Suarez strike, a Layvin Kurzawa own goal and a Messi penalty, Edinson Cavani's away goal looked to have put the tie beyond the hosts , only for Neymar to strike twice in the closing minutes and then Sergi Roberto to remarkably pop up with the winner five minutes into stoppage time.
Barca stars Samuel Umtiti, Javier Mascherano and Ivan Rakitic were the first to post from the changing rooms followed by a VERY excited Luis Suarez.
After scoring the winner, Sergi Roberto later hailed his team-mates and supporters said: "AMAZING! Together we made it! Huge fans and team!"
