Leo Messi is an only footballer, irrepetible, of which only can enjoy once in the life. While the fans of all the world marvel with his performances, the thought of the rivals is clear: threat. The defences know that, when he has the balloon, the danger is latent: Where? By where? How? It is unpredictable and impredecible. But, although you know what goes to do, will do it in any case.

Messi is able to follow amazing more than a decade afterwards. It defines as always and the dribblings are the ones of almost always, but anybody is able to detain to the Argentinian. Pícaro Like few players before, his presence in the field is a constant threat for the rival. That they say it to him to the Athletic, the next Barcelona rival, that has fit 27 goals already of the Argentinian star.

The Athletic, one of the favourites of Messi

To Messi no gives him at all badly the group rojiblanco. In fact, in all his career, only has marked him more goals to the Seville (29). His 27 goals to the Athletic are a very high figure and show how enchufa when it plays against the colchoneros. It has done them to him of all the colours: of fault, of head, of penalti... Simeone Is conscious that no can him stop: "Only you can pray so that it do not have the day", said does a year.

Without going more far, Messi has marked in two of his three last visits to the field of the Athletic -in League and in Glass-, although it is in the Camp Nou where more goals annotates in front of the colchoneros (15 of the 27). Now, it will look for to lengthen the good series in the Barcelona sanctuary, in a party that the media have planted already under the title of 'final anticipated' in LaLiga Santander 2017-18.

Messi, to by the goal 600 like professional

Messi carries already 23 goals in this League. Anybody is able of toserle. And it wants to increase his income the Sunday. It knows that the rival no will put it to him easy, since Godín, Filipe Luis and company always are intense in his defence, but with Leo all can occur. The Barcelona wants to add the three points to  increase the advantage with the Athletic of Madrid in the table of classification (at present to five points of the ones of Valverde).

Messi, besides, will have the challenge to mark a goal for scalar until the 600 so many officials since it is in the elite of the football, adding those that accumulates with the FC Barcelona and those that has annotated with the selection of Argentina. Arguments will not be missing him to the '10' to follow shining.
