Already they have happened some weeks since the FC Barcelona premièred in the present edition of the Champions with a goleada in front of the Juventus (3-0), but the Barcelona want to seal the pass to the following round in a commitment that foresees enough more complicated. The one who will try to go back to lead to his will be Leo Messi, with a particular aim in his visit to Turín.
And it is that it does practically a year that the Argentinian does not mark a goal out of house in the maximum European competition, since the last time that it did it was on 23 November 2016 in Celtic Park. In that meeting, a doublet of the forward meant a 0-2 for the Catalans, and since have thrown in fault the so many of the '10'.
In the two painful defeats in the eliminatory in the Park of the Princes (4-0) and in the own Juventus Stadium (3-0), the Barça remained orphan of the targets of Leo, the same that happened him in exits of this season in which it harvested a victory in José Alvalade (0-1) and a tie in the Georgios Karaiskakis (0-0).
Double challenge
The meeting against the Juventus will suppose a special motivation for Leo Messi, that carries three parties of drought in what it already is the longest series without annotating in what it goes of season. If the Barça never has won in his visits to Turín, the Argentinian neither can boast, because in addition to have not gone out victorious neither has been able to celebrate goals in his trips to the Piamonte. The statistical could change this Wednesday, and the rosarino will put everything of his part so that like this it was.
