But it took only one moment of ‘Messi magic’ to overturn all of it, as Barcelona won the game as Lionel Messi scored a goal in the dying minutes of the game to make his ide bag three points.

The Barcelona captain asked for the ball in midfield and dribbled past Atletico Madrid’s central area, further he passed the ball to Luis Suarez, who didn’t waste time and gave a shot scoring opportunity to Messi with a single touch.

Messi anticipated the move by the Uruguyan International and wasted no time in taking an additional touch, instead he banged the ball inside the net, crashing the hearts of Los Rojniblancos at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium.

During the match, it mostly felt that Atletico Madrid will first break the deadlock or rather take three points as they certainly controlled most part of the games.

With this, Barcelona is back at the top of the table with Real Madrid holding their neck with the same number of points. Thus, with El Clasico approaching, things in Spain are heating up.
