Goal Of The Day: Lionel Messi Kicks A Fireball Into Atletico de Madrid’s Net

• Who: Lionel Messi, Barcelona
• Opponent: Atletico de Madrid
• League/Tournament: La Liga
• Que Paso?: We’d been waiting for this give and go goal from Lionel Messi (with an assist from Danny Alves) to pop up on the ‘net. It shows Messi just playing with the defense before scoring his 11th goal of the season. This game preceded Atletico’s fan snowball fight with the Bilbao keeper, so maybe it explains the team’s fans frustrations. We know we wouldn’t like to get played like that, even if it is at the feet of (sorry, Ronaldo and our Chilean mother) the best player in the world.

Check out the goal after the jump.
