Calendar of FC Barcelona

Leo Messi was sensacional in the second part of the FC Barcelona-Elche and annotated a doublet for encarrilar the victory of his team. The second, that went the 2-0 for the Barça, went a grandísimo goal after a spectacular driving of Frenkie of Jong, that went of all those that went out him to his step for finally assist to the '10', that did not fail after 'seat' to Édgar Badia to base of amagos.

A grandísimo so much of the attacker of Rosario, that took advantage of the powerful career of an Of Jong that when it accelerates is very difficult to stop. The Dutch began to run to the contrary area and any of the Alicante defences knew neither could stop him. At the end, the Dutch planted inside the area, put it backwards and Leo, after a big control, threw several amagos to deceive to the goalkeeper of the Elche until it saw a space and planted it to perfection at the end of the meshes.

With this so much, the captain barcelonista arrived to the 18 in what it goes of League. It began the day empatado in the Pichichi to 16 with Luis Suárez, but finishes it leader in solitary. The international albiceleste already goes way of a new award at most goleador and gives the impression that it already has taken this cruising speed that is used to to be so positive for the Barcelona.

In what it goes of 2021, Messi has marked already 11 goals in the Spanish championship in the seven parties that has contested. They are stellar numbers for a footballer that has gone clearly of less to more in what it goes of campaign. In spite of the 'tropiezos' against the Seville, Paris Saint-Germain or the Cádiz, the reality is that the rosarino is to a big level and have to be his mates those that put to his height.

The party against the Seville, key for LaLiga

Now, the Barça will have to face a meeting to life or death against the Seville the next weekend. The culés visit to the sevillistas in Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán in a duel in which they will play surely his options to compete LaLiga. A victory would move away to the hispalenses that right now compete by the third place of the Barcelona, and would approach to the ones of Koeman to Real Madrid and Athletic of Madrid, second and first, respecticamente.

Besides, it is necessary to stand out that the Andalusians and the Catalans also will confront next Wednesday 3 in the turn of the eighth of final of Glass of Rey. The ones of Julen Lpetegui won 2-0 in the gone and have a foot and half in the final, but the barcelonistas go to sell expensive his skin and will try a traced back complicated, but that neither much less is impossible.
