Lionel MESSI kick start his campaign for the new year in the most spectacular way, scoring a hat-trick against Atletico Madrid in the Copa del Rey. Barcelona will now take a 3-1 lead to the Nou Camp for the second leg.
Perhaps it was his way of thanking Barca (they have agreed to let him play against France in February) and telling Diego “don’t forget to bring me too!!!” or maybe he was making his case as the World’s best player.
His first, started with a beautiful one-two involving him and Daniel ALVEZ from which he coolly slid the ball past Gregory COUPET. His second came from the penalty spot after he was fouled by Johnny HEITINGA.
Atletico did manage to pull one back through Tomas UJFALUSI. But Lionel ensured that Atletico will not spoil his night as he dribbles past COUPET to secure his hat trick.
One thing is for sure, Atletico will not be thinking about the prospect of playing Barca in the Nou Camp. Remember what Lionel did to them last time?

Hello,
he stars the season in a brilliant way. He is the best, although we hope that he has a good behaviour in the future and that some "incidents" during last decembre in Barcelona were puntual things.
Regards,
