THE Lionel Messi he did it again and took eighth Golden Ballcovering his “mythical” course in World Cup of Qatar, being the tournament’s top player and second scorer with seven goals.
Shortly after being awarded the top individual award, Pulga was asked by his official account Ballon d’Or which of his 821 goals stands out, revealing he will never forget the one at the Bernabeu against Real in the 2-0 Champions League semi-final win in the 2010/11 season.
“I always say that the special goals are the ones you scored in the Champions League final, the ones you scored in the World Cup final.
I don’t know, but the goal I always remember is the one against Real Madrid, when we beat them 2-0 at the Bernabeu in the semi-finals of the Champions League.
I think the most memorable goals are always the most important, but for now I’ll stick to one of them“, he said, characteristically, in a match in which he scored both of his team’s goals (76′ and 87′).
In fact, during that season, Messi he had won the third of the four Champions Leagues of his career, and in the final he had also found the way to the net in, probably, the best appearance of a player in the final of the competition.
