Barcelona was in fine goalscoring form the night the Catalans hosted Malaga at the Camp Nou in La Liga. Pep Guardiola’s men fired six goals past the visitors and Messi quite naturally found himself on the scoreboard.
The mercurial Argentine showed great control over the ball after he received a long cross with his chest. He dribbled and feinted past three defenders to aim a shot into the net. The pace and height of the ball put it well out of the goalkeeper’s reach and almost miraculously, Barcelona had their second goal of the night, possibly the best one out of the six.
