Another game against Sevilla in which Messi stands as a protagonist. His success against those of Sánchez Pizjuán is worthy of study. It is a combination that is on the way to becoming a scientist. The Argentine has already scored 27 goals against the Andalusian side. In fact, he is the player who has signed the most goals for a First team. Yesterday there was another binge of goals. He made another hat-trick. The culé recovers the smell just the week of the double crossing against Real Madrid.

It is a match that is going to be very hard, because it is against Real Madrid, in its field ... But we will win and we are confident that Then we will think about the next match, that of the League, we will try to get everything ", said an always ambitious, and also cautious, Leo Messi.
The international albiceleste prepared for the double crossing against those of Santiago Solari with a new hat-trick. The 44! in his career, between Barcelona and the Argentina national team. In total, Messi has scored more than three goals in a whopping 50 matches, since in five he signed four goals and in one he managed to overcome the rival goal five times. It was in the Champions League, in season 11-12, against Bayer Leverkusen. Barça won the German team by seven goals to one in a legendary match.
His goal-scoring success causes him to break statistics and make history week after week. The three goals of yesterday against the Sevilla de Machín, two with the left leg and one with the right, make Messi take a run in the Pichichi and also in the Golden Boot. The player has surpassed the rival goals in LaLiga in 25 occasions He has only played 23 games, so his performance is spectacular: he goes a pace of more than one goal per game. Nobody follows him closely. It has no rival. Neither does it have it in Europe. The Argentine is on his way to become one more season in the continental top scorer and add the sixth Golden Boot.
But for that, there is still a lot to do, almost half of the season left to play. And the immediate calendar has reserved a double crossing against Real Madrid. Of the 44 matches in which Messi has signed a hat-trick, two have been against the white team. The first was in the 2006-2007 season. It was at LaLiga and the final score was a draw at three. The second is more recent: in the 2013-2014 campaign. The Catalan team won at the Bernabéu by four goals to three.
Five years have passed since then, but Messi is still the same accurate and lethal striker in front of goal. And he arrives at the Classic in a scoring run.
The Santiago Bernabéu is a stadium that does not give anything bad to the Argentine striker. In his 19 visits to the field of Real Madrid has managed to score 15 goals. In no other visiting venue has he scored so many goals against the same rival as at the Bernabéu. He has played in the Spanish Super League, Champions League and Copa del Rey. This last competition is the only one in which Messi has not yet managed to see a goal in the madista stadium. On Wednesday you have the opportunity to get it for the first time.
