Although the Real Sociedad advanced in the marker in the minute 53 of party, Leo Messi took only six minutes in equalising again the contention in Anoeta, taking advantage of a contragolpe isolated of the FC Barcelona in which the Argentinian star received in the penalty spot a precise pass of the death of Neymar Jr.
The "crack" Brazilian was not to his best level -as the rest of the team-, but followed increasing the number of assistances of this season in all the competitions. Leo Messi, by his part, did not put nervous to the hour to receive the balloon and, from the interior of the area, plant a shot raso and placed that it was impossible to detain for his compatriot Gerónimo Rulli.
It was without place to doubts a "chispazo" of Leo Messi for the FC Barcelona, taking into account that the Barcelona offensive trident hardly could appear on the terrain of game in San Sebastián, to the not having the team fluidity in the game.
The goal of Leo Messi plants him with 9 so many in the League Santander, one underneath of Cristiano Ronaldo in the fight by the "Pichichi" of the competition. In spite of the goal, the Barcelona did not encourage later neither improved in the game, but it followed to favour of a Real Sociedad very combativa. Badly party of the Barça, in general lines, and one of the worst of the era Luis Enrique.
