Liverpool defender Virgil van Dijk that it will not be easy in facing Lionel Messi in the Champions League semi-finals.
Van Dijk was on the score sheet as Liverpool sealed their place in the last four with a 4-1 win over Porto on Wednesday, after a 2-0 lead in the first leg.
Meanwhile, Barcelona Captain Messi also helped his team eliminate Manchester United on Tuesday after scoring two goals.
According to Van Dijk in an interview:
"It's going to be a great match-up for all of us," Van Dijk told Viasport Fotball.
"It's about doing it all together, it's never 1vs1, it's never just me against a particular striker.
"It's always us against everyone and I think that's the only way we can defend well.
"And it's going to be very hard and I think he [Messi] is the best player in the world but we'll see."
