Guirassy's treble means he is the competition's top goal scorer with 13 goals – one more than Barca's Raphinha.

The Guinea forward netted his first with a Panenka from the penalty spot after Wojciech Szczesny brought down Pascal Gross.

Guirassy grabbed his second to keep the tie alive four minutes into the second period when he nodded home from a yard out.

But Barca briefly sucked the life out of Dortmund by scoring a vital goal.

Fermin Lopez attacked down the right flank and Ramy Bensebaini sliced the ball into his own goal.

But Guirassy netted his third after he made no mistake when Ronald Araujo fired his clearance straight at him.

Barcelona now face the winners of Bayern Munich or Inter Milan in the semi-finals.

Inter take a 2-1 advantageinto tomorrow's second leg at the San Siro.
