Lionel Messi scored two goals from long range for Barcelona in their 4-1 win vs. Huesca.
Messi continued his long range efforts after scoring a marvelous strike vs. PSG, this time against Huesca as he helped Barcelona in their win. He would give Barcelona the 1-0 lead in the first half as his shot would strike the crossbar and go in for his 20th goal of the league season.
Barcelona would add one more with another great strike by Griezmann and Huesca would close the gap at 2-1 going into half time. Early in the second half, Lionel would get his seventh assist off a cross to Mingueza who would score.
The Argentine would make it to 21 goals in the league before the end of the match. A second long range goal, his third in a row, as he would score to make it 4-1 for Barcelona minutes before the end of the match. He has now scored 20 goals or more in 13 straight La Liga seasons.
He would also equal Xavi’s record of most matches ever for Barcelona at 767 matches.

Messi developed very much on his outside box shoot, much needed in N/T
He scored 3 of his goals in WC 2014 from the edge of the box.
CR equalled Messi record for scoring at least 20 goals in the league for 12 seasons….. But then Messi set new record the next day by scoring at least 20 goals for 13 seasons in a row:laugh:
That made it 3 rocket strikes in last 2 games.
Most precise shooter ever
