Even in “who cares” mode, the Blaugranes of Barcelona are incredibly dangerous. I’d say that Quique Sanchez Flores and his Atletico Madrid learned that the hard way, but I’ve got a feeling that they already knew. Lionel Messi completed his hat trick, much to the surprise of absolutely no one. It wasn’t anywhere near as pretty as either of his first two goals, but they all count exactly the same. This one was simply a tap-in after a scuffle.
Barcelona Vs. Atletico Madrid: Lionel Messi Hat Trick Seals Blaugranes Victory
Messi now has 25 goals in La Liga after his hat trick, putting him on an absolutely insane pace for over 40 goals. For the third straight year, Messi is ripping opponents apart and putting up absolutely gaudy numbers. He doesn’t actually seem to have the flash that he’s had in past years, but maybe I’m just totally full of crap because I’m used to it at this point.
Barcelona’s win streak is about to be extended to...forget it, I can’t count that high. I barely got through the 5th grade.
