What a goal by Messi. It was immediately compared to the famous goal by Maradona against England ‘86. I didn’t see the match, because I was flying from Seville to Barcelona. I haven’t seen a Barça match in weeks. The side-effects are starting to show up. Thank god they’re playing on Sunday.

Barça won this Copa del Rey first leg semifinal 5-2 at Nou Camp. Getafe has to do some miracles to beat us in the second leg and it looks like Barça is going to have good chance getting to the cup final after many years of bad cup performance. Barça is the most successful team in Copa del Rey, but the last time we won the cup was 97-98.
