By db-admin
DBasia.news – Barcelona won a landslide victory over Celta Vigo in the continued La Liga match at the Balaidos Stadium. Even so, Lionel Messi’s minor trend continues there.
Barcelona winning 1-0 when the game has been running for 11 minutes. A rising player, Ansu Fati, listed his name on the scoreboard after receiving Philippe Coutinho’s pass.
Barcelona’s second goal was born in the 51st minute. The goal stems from Lionel Messi’s movement who pushed his way into the host’s defense. Then, when he was in front of the goal, Messi opened fire.
The ball from Messi’s shot hits Lucas Olaza and changes direction. Ival Villar was deceived.
Lionel Messi celebrated for the goal. However, based on the notes released after the match, Barcelona’s second goal was not Messi’s, but an own goal.
That way, Messi has failed to score in the last six matches at Balaidos. That is the longest record for Messi to have scored a goal away from home at a stadium.
Meanwhile, Sergi Roberto’s third Barcelona goal was scored by the end of the match. The player’s hard shot rattled Celta Vigo’s net.
With six points from two matches, Barcelona are entrenched in fifth place in the standings. On the other hand, his rival, Real Madrid, won seven points from three matches.
