Watch the video of Lionel Messi scoring a thunderous volley to level the score.
Sevilla started the game well and took the lead through their captain Jesus Navas in the 22nd minute. Fingers were pointed out Lionel Messi who lost the ball higher up the pitch which eventually lead to a quick counter-attack for the hosts.
However, he made retaliation as the lead lasted for just four minutes. Thanks to a top-notch volley from Barcelona’s record goalscorer Lionel Messi to equalize the score.
When Ivan Rakitic saw the opportunity to pass the ball to Barcelona’s number 10, the Croatian midfielder just did that to stand and witness another magical moment from Lionel Messi as he struck the ball sweetly to give no chance for Sevilla’s shot-stopper Tomas Vaclik to get a piece of hand on it.
With yet another goal against the side from Seville, Messi has scored not scored more against any other side in the La Liga history with 35 goals.

It was another piece of the individual showcase from Lionel Messi as Barcelona levels score. Just moments before half-time Sevilla’s right back Gabriel Mercado put the hosts in the lead when the defence went past sleep.
Here is how Twitter reacted to Lionel Messi’s thunderous volley in this game.
Messi has just scored his 34th goal against Sevilla in 35 appearances. I’m no mathematician but that’s nearly a goal a game.
