Lionel Messi made his 100th appearance as Barcelona captain on Wednesday, then scored his 600th goal, and made the Internet weep for the one-millionth time.
La Pulga‘s goal put the finishing touches on a 3-0 UEFA Champions League semifinal first leg defeat of Liverpool with a spectacular free kick goal that someone went as far as to label the “Roberto Carlos versus France” goal of our generation.
[ KLOPP: Goal was “unsaveable” ]
Now, it’s not that incredible, but it sure is wonderful. And thanks to “Guy with a cell phone who films instead of watching” Jordi Trenzano Vilar, we’ve got a breath-taking angle of Messi’s near immaculate goal.
And the “Mes-si! Mes-si!” chants are the chef’s kiss of the fingers to it all.
Enjoy. And enjoy again. And again. Keep enjoying.
