Another clutch moment from Sergi Roberto, give him a lot of credit for that goal, an incredible run.

Crazy game

Best game of football I've watched in a long time

fullstop

GOAT strikes again

Really enjoyable day of sport topped of by a world class performance from messi

LuckyGent88

What a run by Roberto to set that up although Marcelo should have hacked him down

enzo roco

Ramos is so so silly

RoryMac

What a goal to win a game

niallo27

That's why Ronaldo will always be in messi's shadow in my opinion.

marvin80

That's why he's the greatest player ever, carried Barca tonight

Surreptitious

Ronaldo's quiff is struggling.

Dunphy was spot on.

Best Classico in years imo.

Dirty Dingus McGee

What an unbelievably brilliant game.One of the best I've sever seen.

Messi is simply ridiculous.The best I've seen.

Rayne Wooney

Super performance by Messi

Will surely run a close second to Ronaldo when the awards are given out at the end of the year

This

Rezident

But he's finished, dunphy said so...

Corholio

Great game of football in fairness and a hell of a finish to top it off. Definitely could have gone either way but that's a way to win a Clasico.

Yeah how corrupt of the league to allow Messi to score a cracker of a last minute winner. Have they no integrity?

JaMarcusHustle

Disgraceful from Madrid. Should have been an easy one to shut down, but they couldn't help themselves from pushing forward. And then they get caught 6 v 4 at the end.

Zidane at fault there. Or if he was barking at his players to just sit tight and they weren't listening, then they need to be punished. Again.

Nevermind him, he does this every so often. I'm sure it's a bot

LuckyGent88

Messi was at his brilliant best tonight. It was like getting elbowed by Marcelo set him off and he went into beast mode.

Barca did the same though before the equaliser. I love the mentality of both teams. They both thought they could win it.

Can already imagine a few "Toothless Wonder" headlines across the web.

MD1990

Some run from Sergi Roberto.

Messi showed he is the greatest.
Amazing performance.

Rayne Wooney

Shocking from Zidane, cruising at the top and they could throw away the league now

He is thinking as a player wanting to win rather than a manager looking at the bigger picture

Looks like he just needed the smack

Burial.

He's carried them all season. If they end of winning the league it'll be close to the top of Messi's greatest achievements. He's been twice as good as any player in the world this year. And people thought he was in decline.

Jan_de_Bakker

So when is Real Madrids game in hand ?

August ?

as late as possible so the corrupt la Liga FA can give the trophy to the murderers

What a brilliant game to top off a brilliant weekend of football.

The two FA cup semi finals made great viewing and this topped it off nicely.

Just put him on ignore lads, not worth the kilobytes of data to display his nonsense.

Although he has done well so far I've a feeling that the only thing he's good at is letting the players play which is a good quality when you have so many good players.I'd fancy he'd do nothing with a mediocre group of players.

I hear they're just not going to give them the game in hand at all! :eek:

Classy, how did you like it in the end?

The miracle isn't the last second winner against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, the miracle isn't a masterclass performance in which he had to drag the good ship Barca in the right direction on his own at times, the miracle isn't how consistently he produces these moments or these nights, the miracle isn't how despite being the best sportsman alive that he remains so eerily grounded and humble, the miracle is Messi. Everything about Messi is the miracle. Savour this, this what you are seeing right now, this incredible combination of factors that by chance all aligned at just the right moment to give you the player you see wearing the Blaugrana, because once he is gone, you wont ever see it again.

Messi 500. The Bernabeu is Messi's, football is Messi's.

SlickRic

There is nobody like him and there never has been.

You can take your Pelés, your Maradonas, your Bests, your Ronaldos, your Zidanes, your Ronaldinhos...whoever...it doesn't matter.

Messi eclipses the lot.

That team is a broken docket. It's in need of major surgery. Players are woefully out of form. The coach is tactically flawed. The recruitment policy has been atrocious. Yet through it all, Messi is dragging this team, potentially, to another La Liga title.

And he wins tonight's game with an ice cool finish to bring up goal 500.

Kroos' face at the end said it all. A smirk came across his face as what just happened sank in.

All you can do is laugh.

The word 'genius' isn't enough.

I've never seen anyone quite as buttmad as you are right now. What are you even babbling about?

MisterAnarchy

Great game for the neutral, could have been ten all.
Real looked like they had salvaged a result with their never say die attitude but the little man had the final word.

Best league in the world by a distance.

Please stop talking bollix.

That was a brilliant game. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

More of a Madrid fan than a barca one but couldn't but enjoy the last goal. Some run from Roberto (Marcelo should have taken one for the team)

Game had everything and thankfully not too many bad refereeing decisions to destroy the game (and this thread)

Could still win the league & Champions league this year :rolleyes:
If Ramos stayed on they could have avoided defeat & Messi doing that ain't easy to stop with 11 men.

Real Madrid should just score own goals between now and end of season as a protest ..

Great viewing but can't be considered anything other than horrendous game management.
