Arguably, the most talked about football match happened yesterday and a certain Lionel Messi has stolen all the glory from the game as he led his Barcelona away side to triumph over Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabéu.

The 3-2 victory for Barcelona relegates Real Madrid to a second position on the La Liga table. Though both teams now have 75 points each, Barcelona tops the league table with its goal difference.

Football Pundits believe Barca topping the league table now could last to give this season’s trophy to the Catalan side. Reason being that Real Madrid has a number of competitive away games which might be very difficult to win.
