BARCELONA - Barcelona captain Lionel Messi was in a prolific mood as his side crushed Eibar 5-0 at home in La Liga on Saturday, scoring four goals to placate supporters who began the game by showing their discontent with president Josep Maria Bartomeu.
Messi had not scored in his previous four games but put the Spanish champions ahead in the 14th minute by dancing and barging his way past three players to slot home for the opener. “The reality is that he is always causing trouble for the opponents, and if he’s not scoring goals he’s setting them up. That’s why he is the best in the world, because he solves problems that others can’t.”
Barca looked shaky in the early stages against Eibar and conceded a goal that was quickly ruled offside but they soon found their feet, led by Messi who was at his unplayable best.
Is that the Eibar that would struggle to win div 2 of the the West Kent Sunday League? .... Well done Lionel.
Club Champion Messi is still making the headlines, not because he is good, it is just that football has fail to develop over the years. Today's football ignores youth development & waste a lot of time & resources on marketing average player with good haircuts as quality players.
