Thing of Beauty
Lionel Messi scored the best goal I have ever seen on a football pitch - in last night's game between Athletico Madrid and Barcelona.
Not only was a thing of great beauty - Messi's goal was simply audacious.
Because for a left-footed player spin on the ball was turning it away from the goal - yet the little Argentinian still managed to slot it into the top right hand corner of the net.
If Messi does not win goal of the season for last night's effort - I'll eat my hat.
Judge for yourself.
