Messi Shines as Barcelona Demolish Valladolid (5-1)

Lionel Messi rocked the Camp Nou Stadium as Barcelona demolished Valladolid 5-1 in the eleventh round of the La Liga on Tuesday.

The Blaugrana started the game so fiercely as early as after only three minutes when the french defender Clément Lenglet exploited a silly mistake, made by Valladolid's defenders, firing an excellent shot to give his side the lead.

Ten minutes later, Kiko silenced the Camp Nou venue netting the equalizer for his side. Messi showed up after thirteen minutes delivering a perfect pass to Arturo Vidal, whose low finish restored the lead to Barca.

The Argentina captain rocked the stadium in the 35th minute by netting one of the wonderful goals in the Liga through a lovely free-kick when he unleashed a left-foot shot netting the third.

Messi stunned again in the 75th minute, adding the fourth through an extraordinary shot past Valladolid's keeper.

One minute later, the Argentinian made his second assistance in the game, delivering a lovely pass to Suarez, who found his mission so easy to score the fifth, sealing the victory. Barcelona now ranks second with nineteen points, while Valladolid occupies the ninth spot with fourteen points.

On October 23, Royal Spanish Football Federation confirmed that El Clasico between Barcelona and Real Madrid would be held on December 18.
