Messi moves away from Benzema and puts the turbo in the race for Pichichi

The defeat against the Granada​ also left some positive news in key barcelonista, at least in the individual. Leo Messi added a new so much this season and arrived to the 26 in League and to the 34 between all the competitions. The Argentinian is starring a 2021 absolutely spectacular and since it began the new year has not left to celebrate goals with the T-shirt of the FC Barcelona.

The rosarino began the season something low of form, dragging surely the stress that caused him his exit frustrated of the FC Barcelona. However, little by little it was entonando and from does several months has gone back to be the King of Europe. Anybody has marked more goals that he since it began the year and anybody doubt that has recovered his level. In fact, that the Barça follow competing by LaLiga is largely thanks to him.

Right now, the '10' carries already 26 so many in League and goes launched in the career by the Pichichi. After this target in front of the grenadian, the six times Balloon of Gold is even more favourite, since it left him very clear to his perseguidores who commands in the Spanish championship. Karim Benzema is his big rival in these moments with 21 goals, but the French every time is more far of the captain culé.

Besides, it is necessary to take into account that the Real Madrid is playing the pass to the final of Champions League. This Wednesday that comes, the whites play in front of Chelsea and therefore it is likely that Zinedine Zidane of rest in front of Osasuna this Saturday to several 'heavy weights'. Benzema Could be one of them, by what Leo would have the occasion against Valencia the Sunday to follow expanding this advantage.

The third in discord in this fight by this prestigious trophy of maximum goleador of LaLiga is Gerard Moreno. The tip of the Villarreal, that for the majority has to be the '9' headline of Spain in the next Eurocopa, is going out and sum already 20 targets. The Catalan is the leader and the best player of the castellonenses and still dreams with the prize, although the reality is that the distance with Messi is considerable.

It would be the eighth Pichichi in the career of Messi

The Argentinian conquered it in the seasons 2009/2010, 11/12, 12/13, 16/17, 17/18, 18/19 and 19/20. Therefore, the one of this campaign could be the eighth and the fifth followed, showing that anybody can him compare. The history is near at hand of his hand and seems that the 'capi' of the Barcelona will not fail to the appointment.
