Barcelona broke new record by winning 7  league games in a row, from the start of the season and  this is the BEST START EVER for FC Barcelona. The match wasn't easy as always with this game, Almeria did very well to contain Barca in the opening minutes. Barca didn't look threatening . All the attacking was going through Messi. 

At 20th minute as always Messi scored a beautiful solo goal , I must say the goal resembled his old goals(Before 2010  )  where messi would play on the Right. He drifted from the right to the centre and beautiful one touch with pedro and shot to his far side and BOOM GOAL. 




Messi broke this record of Raul 

Raul : 323 goals in 741 games 

Messi : 324 goals in 388 games

Everything was going well and Messi was injured and he asked to be taken off. Xavi came in for Messi. Moments after this and till the HT Almeria looked very sharp.They were pressing high up the pitch and Barca didnt look comfortable with the possession either.Marc Bartra did very well couple of times ,Pique did a brilliant tackle and valdes asusual did well in stopping the ball and luckily Barca went 0-1 at the Break instead of 1-1. 

Second half : I personally thought Barca would struggle in the second half but they proved me wrong. Xavi ,iniesta,Alves,sanchez, pedro etc all did very well in keeping the ball . Marc Bartra looked very confident in the second half. We built all the attacks from the back (Salir Jugando as they say in spanish) so that we don't lose the ball. 
Attack is the best form of defense is  a bit theoretical saying.

Well today and a more pragmatic way  "Keeping Possession is the best form of defense".

That's what we did whole second half.Building slowly from the back and since almeria were desperate to equalise ,we took that advantage . 
Second goal  adriano scored a tap in(Not a screamer this time)


Barcelona looked great after this lead and played their passing game very well till the final whistle and almeria cringed after the second goal and had no answers but showed adulation for Barcelona's style of keeping the ball till the Final whistle .
