Barcelona had to survive a late scare to take all three points against a plucky Zaragoza outfit at La Romereda. . Lionel Messi’s second hat-trick in succession in the league almost wasn’t enough as Barca had to rely on a late Zlatan Ibrahimovic penalty to put the tie beyond doubt as two late strikes from Adrian Colunga had the champions on the rack. A mistake from Diogo just three minutes into the tie allowed Pedro nip in and cross for Messi, who made no mistake nodding home past the hapless Roberto. Gerard Pique had a chance to double Barca’s advantage less than five minutes later but fired straight at the Zaragoza custodian and almost immediately the centre half was called into action at the other end of the field making a brilliant challenge to thwart Leonardo Ponzio’s surge at goal.Without reaching the level they showed midweek against Stuttgart, Barcelona looked quite comfortable even with the likes of Andres Iniesta and Carles Puyol starting from the bench. On the half hour mark Messi landed a corner on the head of Zlatan Ibrahimovic but the Swede somehow contrived to miss with a free header from inside the six yard box, nodding his downward effort wide of Roberto’s goal.

Ibra is a twat
Messi is incredible. I never thought I would say this, but I think he is as good as Maradona
@anashkhss
Ok
Messi is one of the best in the world, no doubt, but let’s face it, defenders in Spain just cannot tackle.

messi is the king…hopefully he can transfer his club form 2 the national team n plez maradona dont under utilize him dammit
Like how #4 is arguing with the ref after getting carded. Messi jukes him twice, then he throws Messi to the ground and still has the audacity to argue a penalty award. The referees should have the right to tell them “SYFM and get out of the box”!
Oh Maestro… we don´t deserve you!!!
Messi must be take”n some sort of performance enhancement, its not normal for for a man of his age to do such things! its not possible to acquire such a talent. i was a big fan of maradona, brazilian ronaldo, zidane and pele but this guy is take”n over,and with such a likeable attitude, youcan be sure he will go down as the greatest of all time. sit back and enjoy!
ibras worst game was this one and etoos was last season against mallorca where they lost 2-1
both of them got penalties on the last minute and etoo wasnt even able to score his
@soooooo89 Yes im american but i know greatness when i see it, Messi is good but he’s nowhere near Ronaldo level. I think Christiano Ronaldo will go down as the best best futbol player to ever do it.
this is all messi lol
