WOW SEE: Messi becomes Barcelona's highest scoring free-kick taker..!!
- Messi is Barcelona's highest goal scoring freekick taker ever.
- La Pulga was on target as Barcelona defeated Atletic Bilbao.
Lionel Messi became Barcelona's top scorer from free kicks after
scoring one for himself in his side's 3 - 0 victory against Atletic Bilbao.
Paco Alcacer scored his first league goal since joining from Valencia last
year by turning in a pass from Neymar in the 18th minute while Messi
whipped in an angled strike in the 40th, his 27th goal from a free kick
for Barca.
Aleix Vidal scored the most impressive goal of the game by finishing off
an audacious solo run midway in the 67th.
Luis Enrique made six changes to the team that beat Atletico Madrid
2-1 in Wednesday's King's Cup semi-final first leg, resting top scorer
Luis Suarez, and it looked a risky move as Athletic made a bold start,
although the hosts' quality soon shone through.
