Messi and his wonder goal against Zaragoza, the best of the year (watch video)

Madrid, December 28, 2010

The Spanish newspaper ‘Marca’ crowned Lionel Messi as the author of the best goal of the year. The winner was the one he scored against Zaragoza, for the 27th stage of Spain  championship La Liga.

The goal is a great sample of the Argentine skills, who fought and stole the ball in midfield, and with speed, feints, dribbling, he left behind three defenders (one with a double feint to the inside and out) and defined left-footed cross. Phenomenal.

It was the 2-0. Messi scored a hat-trick that afternoon and the match ended 4-2 in favor of Barcelona.

Cristiano Ronaldo and his free kick against Villarreal stayed at No. 2 for ‘Marca’, while the podium is completed with a goal byGareth Bale, for Tottenham against  Stoke City.
