Clearing things up (0-4)

Spectacular. Just amazing.

That was a match to remember, mostly thanks to three records broken: first, Valdés became the most time unbeaten Barça goalkeeper (although Milan Petržela almost shattered his chance to it) , second, Messi scored his 200th goal with the culé t-shirt, and third, the 0-4 supposed the 500th goal of the Guardiola Age.

The Czechs made a flagrant and electrical beginning, creating up to three chances in only fifty seconds (you heard well). But slowly, slowly Barça regained control, although the match could have been radically different if Valdés didn't make a heavenly block when Milan Petržela managed to: catch an almost dead ball, quickly sneak through Puyol and Piqué, run the opposite field in no more than 7 seconds (that's speed), and get in a 1 vs 1 against him. Such a scare. But I shall repeat we've got one of the best goalkeepers in the whole planet.

The match didn't have the tides concretized to any team, until Marián Čišovský was sent off in minute 21 by commiting a penalty over Messi (finally!!! finally!!! a penalty over Messi that HAS been whistled!!!), by taking him down with a really silly tackle almost in front of the goalkeeper.

So Messi shot and scored. That made the can opener (0-1, min. 22).

In the first half's extra time, a brilliant heel assist by Cuenca (this dude is truly beginning to amaze everyone) leaves Messi alone to beat Pavlik at pleasure (0-2, min 45+2).

Late in the second half, again Cuenca connects a millimetrical assist that leaves Pavlik sold, and allows Cesc to volley at pleasure (0-3, min.71)

In the second half's extra time, another brilliant heel assist, this time by Piqué (WTF is he doing so advanced??) leaves Messi again alone against Pavlik, and you suppose (0-4, min. 90+2).

Could we ask for more? Maybe, yes^^ (Oh! I was forgetting Alexis Sánchez's reappearance in the late second half... He performed good quality deatils on the pitch).

Now, it's La Liga time again, as we visit San Mamés to face a refloated Athletic Club de Bilbao, this Sunday, 20:00 (PPV??). I also remark that our next Champions League match is gonna be such a challenge, as we'll visit San Siro to play against AC Milan, who are trying to refloat from the shock that one of their star strikers, Antonio Cassano, has just suffered a brain ictus. Luckily, he survived, but after that I don't think he'll be able to play football again, as rumours say that brain damage has been so severe that, if he truly recovers, he'll remain fool for life. I hope this rumours are false.

Well, thats all for now, folks, see ya after the Athletic-Barça!!
