Messi won another El-Classico, with Pyuol and Abidal goals on Santiago Bernabeu. Yesterday, there was huge problems with Real Madrid. At first hosts scored goal. The scorer was Cristinao Ronaldo and everybody waited more and more goals from Real, but Barca made everything clear with its control of ball. The percentage of Ball control was 27% – 73% so Real Madrid failed again.

Messi made great assistant for Abidal, who scored the second goal, which became winning one. It was really drama for Mourinho and his boys. Barcelona showed great performance and great playing style, so today nobody is like this Team. Messi and his friends are the best in the world for today!!!

Barcelona Throphies

Barcelona is the champions of the world after winning 4-0 to FC Santos in Yokohama.  The FIFA Club World Cup turned a very easy game for Catalan Club, they netted four times without any problems. Lionel Messi scored double while Cesc Fabregas and Xavi Hernandez scored their goals too.

The Argentine’s performance was brilliant in the final match. Besides those two goals that he scored, he played very well and his help in winning this game was huge. Before he scored, he already had a shot saved by goalkeeper Rafael.

Xavi, who played his 601th official game for Barcelona, brilliantly controlled the ball before he gave a superb pass to Messi, who by himself conjured up a cheeky chip over the goalkeeper and opened the score.

Xavi then scored a goal himself, after controlling a good pass from Daniel Alves on the first touch and shooting with his second touch.

The third goal was scored after a chaos in Santos box caused by Dani Alves’s cross. Fabregas got the rebound near the goal post and it was very easy for him to score, so he did.

Victor Valdes played very well too, he managed to save the team two times in the game, while he blocked two shots of Santos.
And finally Messi completed the rout in the 82nd minute when he was played through by an excellent pass from the Brazilian Alves. Despite the poor first touch he still managed to skip around the goalkeeper and sent the ball into an empty net.
At the end of the match Messi got a special award from Toyota as the man of the match. Also he managed to repeat the record of Pedro(2009) who scored at least one goal in all the competitions that he participated.
As for the team, Guardiola just got his 13th trophy (form 16 possible) in 3 years, while Pele’s Santos and Cruyff’s Ajax got 12 during the same period of time. Here is all 108 big titles for Barca…

Messi-Barca

Barcelona president Sandro Rosell says that Argentine superstar Lionel Messi will not leave Camp Nou as long as he is in charge at the club.

Messi, who is said to be the best player in the world, made his debut for Barca in 2004 and has helped the Catalan side to countless honours since then.

A host of clubs would love to have the Argentina international in their teams, but Rosell is adamant Messi will remain with Barcelona.

“At Barcelona, there are many things that are not for sale at any price, and Messi is a person who is just that for us,” said Rosell.

“As long as I’m the president at Barcelona, and he does not want to leave, Leo will continue to be a Barca player. If it were up to me, he would never leave the club.”

Messi, who has pledged his future to Barca on numerous occasions, is under contract at the European champions until 2016. But for sure, he will remain at Barcelona even after 2016, because he already is a Catalan Legend.

Riquelme and Messi

The legend of Boca Juniors – Roman Riquelme thinks that it isn’t easy to “use” Lionel Messi effectively. Riquelme, who has played in Argentine and in Spain, may be considered as an expert.
“I think that the Spanish international team needs to have Messi in their squad. And the Argentine international team needs to know that it isn’t Barcelona and they can’t play like Catalans…”

“Argentine must learn how to use Messi correctly, because we have the World’s greatest player in team but we can’t find a good place for him to have complete freedom and play just like he does in Barca. This is catastrophe.”

“With this method of approach to this case, we will not gain any success.”

Today was a game between Colombia and Argentina that ended up with Argentina win 1-2. Finally Lionel Messi managed to score in the internationals…
An enterprising run from James earned a free-kick on the edge of the area, and Dorlan Pabon’s driven effort took a wicked deflection off Javier Mascherano to finish in the back of the net.

The equalizer came in the second half, right at the one hour mark.  Lionel Messi did well to open up the game in the Colombian final third, and after David Ospina spilled Jose Sosa‘s low cross Messi unexpectedly attacked and put the ball into the empty net.

It has been a while since Messi scored for Argentina and this was the main subject of critics towards Leo. In the World Cup Qualifying Messi has 2 goals and is on the fifth place in Top Scorers. Uruguay’s Suarez is on the first place with 5 goals.
In conclusion for Argentina he has 19 goals in 66 apps, but also has 20 assists.
