89' By completing his hat-trick, Messi has now been involved in 19 goals in his last nine league appearances for Barca - scoring 14 and providing five assists.
87' Alena looks to get in on the act as Suarez cushions Messi's zipped pass neatly into his path. However, Reina gets down well to keep out his low volley.
17' WHAT A GOAL FROM MESSI!!! 2-0! Fresh from landing a sixth Ballon d'Or crown, Messi celebrates the occasion in the way that he knows best - with an absolutely glorious goal. Receiving the ball 25 yards from goal, he bends it beautifully into the top corner in trademark fashion - leaving Reina with no chance at all.
