In the 68th minute of the Copa del Rey encounter against Rayo Vallecano, Barcelona drew level thanks to a wonderfully-threaded pass from Frenkie de Jong.
The Dutchman collected the ball behind the halfway line, charged forward and then played it through to Antoine Griezmann – picking out a smart run from the Frenchman.
With Griezmann well in the clear, all that was left to do was square the ball over to Lionel Messi, who made no mistake as he tapped the ball into the back of the net.
Lionel Messi, who else? ?
