Hat-trick of Argentina in his first show post Ballon d'Peter and Keita completed the rout before a Betis deserved a better fate for an hour and then sank.

Mel said that Betis would go for the match and the tie was at 50%. The qualifying round has left dead except historical miracle. Barcelona finished having fun and having fun. Casto stopped four or five balls on goal when he had match and the club was recreated in waves in the room final hour that could trigger further landslide. All this is true and that is. Now ask you to believe that those who missed the game and are the result, those attending a flood of arrivals Barca summaries: for an hour tute Betis Barcelona and found the best visitor who has spent much time by the Camp Nou. Had sometimes pushed up, played with personality, character and quality and discussed the forefront a blunt in his Barça paste phases.

This happened until the Betis (the last half hour, from 2-0) the bottom fell out physically and spiritually. It happened this way and that pride is left Betis and a test for the return, it seems that sooner rather than later, at first. Rubén Castro (several shots, one against the crossbar) and Jorge Molina Pinto forced to sign his best game as Barca. Mel raised the game with his personality Sway, two lines of four very high pressure, wild areas Barcelona exit (Piqué - Alves - Xavi), good use of space ... a team worker (and worked), organized, courageous and wise. Tute a Barca team that hour, he gave the first goal caught on a counter by pitching six players into the penalty area on the edge of sleep. A team that had chances to start the second half, his last-minute bonanza.

Messi, Messi, Messi ...

This is in honor of the Betis and what happened in the lawn ( most, again, less). So certain is that as a heroic Casto saved arrivals of all kinds even in the best minutes of his team: Villa hit the post and their reflections, Messi could not dodge until late in the game ... Balance of Barcelona came out with a team almost gala (without Valdes and Abidal) but with the intensity level slightly watery, thick after a good start, with some gaps and little mobility back to break the lines of a Betis which is targeting a medal for every problem encountered their rival.

Now the rest of the story, which became 50% of Mel in the 5-0 Messi, of Barcelona. A story that began with a tribute to the Golden Ball and Golden squires and ended with an active, stroke and soccer, Messi in the stream of debates that have accompanied him since Monday. The world's best in the vote (and in the field ...) scored three goals, second best (Iniesta) walked two and the third (Xavi) made brain and juggler. While the party was discussed, Messi was the essential difference between the two teams. At the stroke of half ended with a Vaseline well magic against one led by Iniesta. Moving into the crux of the second half when Betis began to limp, turned on the water permanently with a shot opportunity after the umpteenth paradón Casto.

From there the party is over and aired the Tie. Betis devolved bottom fell out and was lost between attack and defense, he neglected his back and lost balls. Messi scored the third with a soft definition to Casto, Pedro Alves clinched an influx of (shockingly low to high in the party) and rounded the result to Keita's header after Pearl Iniesta: control over the line, assisted by spoon. They were minutes of wind, which opened a gulf between the teams, Barcelona and adorned forgave galloping constant arrivals and the Camp Nou had enough to applaud those who entered (Afellay) and those who went looking for the applause (Messi).

Surely the punishment was excessive for a global Betis deserved a goal, the reward may live to return. At least the first hour Betis. But the game lasts 90 minutes and are a trance in which no matter how well you do have a lot of ballots to lose if the other side overlook Xavi, Iniesta and Messi in particular: pure gold.
