Thierry Henry can't understand why people doubt Lionel Messi
He said: “Give the guy on the ball, Andre Gomes, some credit for waiting for Jordi Alba to come – and Sergi Roberto.
“But Leo Messi is Leo Messi. What else can we say about the man?
“I still don’t understand why people doubt this man.
“They have to stop. The guy is unbelievable.”
Barca’s win puts them back to the top of the La Liga table, although Real do have a game in hand.
