Messi outshines Ronaldo In the week 5 of the laliga Santander. The argentine skipper added four more to his league goal this term totalling nine in five appearances in the league.

While Ronaldo and the entire Madrid team struggled to beat a resolute backline well marshalled Antonio Adan , a razor sharp Antonio sanabria was available when needed to head home an inch-perfect cross from the right flank. The 21 year-old La-Masia(Barca) graduate had threatened Madrid’s defence on several occasions but was denied a chance to register on the score sheet. When left to dispatch a free-header from an inch-perfect from Antonio Barragan.

Zinedine Zidane made three changes to the side that trashed Real sociedad 3-1 last time out. Though the portugues super star was able to get two goals against APOEL in the Champion’s league, none of his twelve(12) attempted shots could not get past Antonio Adan.

By the time Sanabria headed home in the 94^th minutes the damage was already done and Ronaldo and Madrid were beaten in front of their own fans.

In the match that went down at camp nou, the new barca team -where Messi is playing more of a free role; ‘’a new role under his new contract’’ according to club president Bartomeu- was fluid and too hot to handle for Eiber. Barca brushed aside Eiber as Messi got four taking his tally to nine alongside goals for pualinho and denis Suarez.
