Chelsea sat deep at the kick off, but Messi opened the scoring after just two minutes, slotting home from a narrow angle after linking with Luis Suarez.
The goal woke Chelsea up and take the game to Barcelona with Hazzard and Willian both seeing shots blocked before Messi then produced another moment of magic with a run and pass into space to set up Dembele to smash home his first goal for the club at the best possible time.
It was end to end to end stuff and Ter Stegen saved well from Marcos Alonso before N'Golo Kante fired wide moments later when well placed as Chelsea refused to lie down and Marcos Alonso also went close when his free kick brushed the outside of the Barca post.
