Zapping But! Football Club Real Madrid, FC Barcelona: top 10 most capped players in the Champions League
It was two years ago but it seems like an eternity. On February 23, 2020, Lionel Messi scored a quadruple for FC Barcelona once morest Eibar (5-0). At the time, the president of the Catalan club was named Josep Maria Bartomeu, the coach was Quique Setien and the Argentinian had played in attack alongside Antoine Griezmann and Arturo Vidal… Two years later, all of them left Catalonia! But Messi’s quadruple remained the latest in La Liga.
Since this followingnoon, it’s ancient history. Indeed, Spain winger Yeremi Pino (19) struck four times with Villarreal in demolishing Espanyol Barcelona (5-1). Four goals scored in 39 minutes, from the 14th to the 53rd. Sign of fate, in February 2020, Messi also started his recital in the 89th minute. In any case, that is his name erased from the shelves of La Liga. Like what, Javier Tebas was right: the Spanish championship might well recover from his departure!
