Barcelona wins 2011 Club World Cup







Barcelona wins 2011 Club World Cup







It was supposed to be a  Messi vs Neymar "football show" given their reputation and befitting of a world class football finale at the club level!  Unfortunately , for Brazilian club Santos FC, it turned out to be exclusively a Messi only affair ! Definitely , it was a messy night for Santos as Messi struck first for Barcelona, early on the 17th' , and highlighted his superiority with another goal on the 82nd'! Barcelona ad no complaints though as Xavi and  Cesc Fabregas booted goals on the 24th' and 45th' , respectively, for a 3-nil advantage at the end of the 1st half!

Neymar? He definitely had his chances but never found his "balls" on the net  !

                                                              0:4 (full time)  /  1st half  (0:3)
                                                                                  Lionel MESSI (17' , 82')
                                                                                  XAVI (24')
                                                                                  Cesc FABREGAS (45')
