Barcelona put in an impressive performance to beat Napoli and reach the Europa League last 16.
They led by two goals when Jordi Alba finished off a counter-attack from Adama Traore’s ball and Frenkie de Jong curled in a stunning shot.
Lorenzo Insigne gave Napoli hope with a penalty to make it 3-2 on aggregate.
But Gerard Pique scored and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang fired into the top corner from Traore’s pass, with Matteo Politano netting a late consolation.
Barcelona will discover their last-16 opponents – one of the Europa League group winners – in Friday’s draw.
Both sets of players stood with a banner saying ‘Stop War’ before kick-off in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
