#4 Who are you, Leo?
Lionel Messi is something else. The Argentine scored thrice, and further increased his numbers for the season. Messi has scored 27 goals in the league this season, which is nine more than Luis Suarez, who is in the second spot. He leads the assists charts as well, with 12 racked up so far.
He has been involved in 52 goals so far this season in all competitions, which is by far the most in the major European leagues. Messi leads in dribbles and chances created as well, and he has been the major factor behind Barcelona's treble hopes this season.
"One of the best things football has given me, how could it be that I have 20 photos with Messi and I do not have the ball in any of them," said Betis midfielder Andres Guardado before the game. Predictably, a similar tale unfolded for Guardado and Betis yet again. We feel for you, Andres.
