Barcelona's Thierry Henry said that despite beating Bayern Munich 4-0 in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final first-leg, his team need to take example from AC Milan's earlier failure.

In 2004,The Rossoneri beat Deportivo La Coruna 4-1 at home in the Champions League quarters, only to lose 4-0 to their Spanish opponents two weeks later.

Barcelona thrashed a helpless Bayern side 4-0 at Nou Camp on Wednesday, but Henry is convinced that Barca have to learn from other big team's mistakes.

"We took a great step into the semis. However, I am not saying we are there just yet," Henry told reporters after the game.

"I remember a game between Milan and Deportivo, it was 4-1 for Milan and Deportivo won the return 4-0, so we will need to go there and be professional and win our game."

The 31-year-old considered that he's looking forward to facing an English team in the semi-finals.

"Whoever we meet in the semis will be tough, but I think Chelsea took a great step, so let's hope for a return to England, and look forward to that." the former Arsenal man added.

Barca will meet the winner of Chelsea and Liverpool.

Chelsea already have a massive advantage over Liverpool in the other quarter final tie, after The Blues beat Rafa Benitez's team 3-1 at Anfield in the first-leg.
