After a stellar performance as an assist midfielder against Italy in Thursday’s Finalissima final, Messi put on his scoring boots and scored five goals. He scored his first goal from a penalty kick in the eighth minute and went on to find the back of the net from the open game in the 45th, 47th, 71st and 76th minutes.
The last time Messi scored was in Barcelona’s 7-1 win over Bayer Leverkusen in the 2012 Champions League.
