Barcelona and Messi continue to break record

Last update 2 December, 2012 por Alberto Llopis

Forty points on 42 potential, thirteen wins and a draw in fourteen parties to sign the best start in the history of Barcelona League, and two new goals from Leo Messi to realize a win against Athletic (5-1).
The Barça signed a great performance. Moved to the rhythm of Xavi and Iniesta, motivated by Leo Messi, what with 84 goals is one to equal the 85 that Gerd Müller marked in 1972, the Catalans walk with a safe step and improve their performance match by match.
Iniesta and Xavi delineated football. Busquets was imperial in the recovery, lateral incisors, the solvent centrals and Messi, matador. A choral game with a profusion of technical details, quality football, touch, of uncheck, dribble and feint, partly sponsored by the tactics of Marcelo Bielsa.
'Crazy’ face each of your own in an individual duel. The Athletic coach seems not to remember the Cup final, settled by the fast track by Barça, and today history repeated itself.
If Vilanova's team suffers against closed defenses, with individual markings, Barcelona fans enjoy, are recreated in each of the lots of the game.
Vilanova left Puyol and Villa on the bench. Adriano replaced the injured Alves. Athletic appeared without Muniaín, a drop that lowered the offensive potential of those from Bielsa.
Iniesta, starting from the left, unbalanced the game each time against the inexperienced Ramalho; Messi felt comfortable in front of Amorebieta and from the first minute Barça was the owner.
A missed chance before the first goal. A corner kick thrown by Messi, a couple of shots from Cesc and the rejection was riveted by Piqué. Tres minutos más tarde, in the minute 25, an excellent pass from Xavi, a great uncheck of Messi and the 2-0.
The Argentine surpassed Iraizoz and before the ball entered, Amorebieta introduced him into the goal. Referee Mateu Lahoz, when considering that the shot was going to goal, he conceded the goal to Messi in the minutes of the match, the twentieth of the season and two behind Gerd Müller's record.
In the last ten minutes of the first half, the Barça put a pair of marches more. Cesc came into play more and intervened in practically all the attack plays. Fabregas did not take advantage of a great action by Messi and Iraizoz stopped. En el 45, Messi crashed the ball on the crossbar and into the 46, Cesc gave him the 3-0 to Adriano, who, entering from behind, beat the Athletic goalkeeper.
Bielsa put Llorente into play in the second half for Aduriz. Athletic had not finished a single time on goal in the first half and looked for something more presence among the Barça centrals.
But before, in the first quarter of an hour of the first half, Iniesta reinterpreted himself. The manchego combined with exquisiteness with Messi in a play claimed as a penalty by the Catalans, later in the minute 57 decided to give him the 4-0 a Cesc.
In an assist that would have been signed by Michael Laudrup or Magic Johnson, Iniesta enabled Cesc and the Arenys player beat Iraizoz (m.57).
The relaxation of Barça and the pride of Athletic allowed the 4-1, work of Ibai, who leaked very well against Piqué and Adriano and beat Valdés.
Before the end of the match, Messi's predatory character led him to score his twenty-first goal in the league, the twenty-eighth since the start of the season, el 84 since the beginning of 2012 and Gerd Müller's brand to just one goal.
Barça was liked and continues to add and break records. Forty points on 42, thirteen wins and a draw in fourteen games, ending a season record 1991-92, signed by Real Madrid from Radomir Antic.
