Barcelona won the La Liga game 4-1 on Monday night at the Camp Nou.
Antoine Griezmann doubled the lead after Messi led the team. Ronald Kuman’s team took control of the game in the second half with a goal from Oscar Mingesa after a goal from Rafa Mir. In the end, the best footballer of the year set a record six times.
With this great victory, the second most successful team in the competition has returned to the points list. His gap with Atlético de Madrid, the best classified, is now 4 points.
After a poor start to the league title campaign, Barcelona got back on track and remained unbeaten in 16 consecutive games. They haven’t lost since December 5.
With this match, Messi hit the record for the highest Chávez match in the club’s history. All matches of the two matches are now 6.
Messi did not take long to touch the record. In the thirteenth minute, he led the team with extraordinary ability. The Argentine star took control of the ball, dodging the opposing obstacle in a great way and scored the goal with a strong shot from outside the area. The ball hits the inside edge of the crossbar and is caught in the net.
Pablo Maffeo also created a good opportunity in the 26th minute. However, the low shot of the Spanish defender was blocked by Marc-Andre Ter Stegen. Seven minutes later, a shot by Jordi Alba from a difficult corner was blocked by Messi’s pass.
Griezmann’s goal doubling the lead was also spectacular. In the 36th minute, the French striker took a strong shot from afar after receiving the ball extended by Pedri. The goalkeeper did not reach the ball even after jumping.
The frustration of hitting the ball off the crossbar again before the break added to the host camp. That’s why Frankie de Young’s attempt failed this time.
Wesca reduced the distance on the last shot just before the break. In a great counterattack, Rafa Mir entered the D-box but could not put his foot in the center of his partner. However, Ter Stegen went ahead and fouled him. Spanish striker Mir was not wrong when he used the penalty.
Barcelona increased the lead in the eighth minute of the second half. The unprotected Mingesa beat the goalkeeper with a header from Messi’s great cross from the left wing. This is the first goal of a young defender from the Barcelona youth academy.
Four minutes later Wesca had a golden opportunity in a great counterattack. However, Mir could not get into the net even though he received the ball in the head of his teammate from the left side. The ball hits his chest and goes over the crossbar. Incredible miss!
Messi made it 4-1 in the last minute of the allotted time. After receiving a pass from Trincomalee, the Barcelona captain’s shot from a distance hit the leg of one of the opponents and the direction changed and he was caught in the net.
Messi, who was on his way to another Pichichi trophy, scored 21 goals. His total goals in 6 games with the Barcelona shirt are now 61.
Barcelona’s points are 59 with 17 wins in 28 games and two draws in five draws. Real Madrid has dropped to three with 2 points less.
Atlético tops the list with 63 points.
