Just before the GK Pau Lopez stomping Messi, yet no punishment.
Lionel Messi - Performances

@Cait Sith I'm pretty used to him playing sublime passes but that second one is proper special.
It really is. Threaded through a crowd. Very much like Totti to del piero years ago for Italy. Don't remember the game, but the pass stayed with me.
Del piero scored, mind you.

Some of his passing against Espanyol.
(What was Suarez thinking?)
That second pass deserved an assist, Suarez was drunk yesterday.
It's crazy how much of a gap there is between Messi and Cristiano at the moment.
He's a freak of nature. Quite literally the perfect attacking player.
The most natural football player to have walked on this earth....
It belongs at the top end of a Laudrup video, and that's the highest praise a pass can get.
Players like him should never get injured because they're just too awesome to watch.
@GifLord can we get his Hattrick today on here?
Good man.
Is he at his goal a game average now for the season?
Since I'm Argentinian & my team will never face Barcelona (it's like 1.000.000/1) I'll never know what does it feel to have this man attacking you. Specially when he wast younger. You must shit breaks.
I watch this over and over, he's like a hurricane.

Wiki says 18 goals in 21 matches. A "normal" return for him.
His suit was underwhelming.
Greatest club footballer of all time...
he can easily win it 5 other times to make it 10, Ronaldo shouldn't be second this year and he will go down the pecking order imo
5 Ballon D'Ors is fecking ridiculous. To think he's been basically the best player in the world for 8 years running now, for 5 of them he had the most outstanding individual season. Incredible consistency.
Still 28 too...could rack up another two/three if he's still arsed.
Who the hell voted Toure for the balon d'or?
Probably Toure
He's improved his hairstyle in each one as well. Learning all the time.
The first two were his Frodo Balings days.
Fully expecting a rant from him tomorrow.4 years on the run, now the 5th. They should rename the trophy after him
What a time to be alive.
Interesting reply. Pretty sure Ronaldo would get an awful lot of stick for this.
Are you serious?
Are you serious?
Yep. Don't get me wrong, it's a funny reply and I'm sure the context was said with tongue in cheek but the point I made is still relevant (it wasn't a wum), the press would be all over Ronaldo for that sort of thing.
Not sure. It's a nothing comment and justified when you get insulted first by a nothing player. Even if he meant it, nobody would see the big deal, Ronaldo or Messi. It's actually sich a harmless reply, it's almost cute. Much worse things are said on the football pitch about sicknesses and family members.
Ronaldo supporters getting a bit desperate and precious.
Maybe because Ronaldo is not short?
Both players laughed it out, so nobody really cares. Besides, Alvaro was hacking him throughout the game.
Good stuff from Messi if true.
Why even bother trying to troll Messi, seriously there is absolutely no point. You can't troll the best ever unless you're mates with him.
