Nobody escapes that.

What less.

Although none of it works in football.

When you stop running, to face the assembly line, it always drags you to the scrapyard.

And Messi seems willing to continue standing, holding his legend as much as he can.

If you have not already overcome the existential crisis that led you to want to flee, you are close to doing so.

Its president withers hopelessly.

Help.

And Messi, on his return to that Champions of the torments that nobody forgives, showed that he wants to rejuvenate Barça.

Without their help, the passage to a new time would be much more difficult.

Life split in two, we said.

Or football, divided into the acts represented in front of the humble Ferencvaros.

A murky beginning gave way to a remarkable plot.

Such was the liberating effect caused by Messi after half an hour when he began to break rivals that there was no partner around him who did not resume his joy later.

The small canary also intervened there.

The security with which his 17-year-old looks restless.

And it amazes.

The dawn of the game, however, had returned Barcelona to the scenes of the second act of the Coliseum.

The equipment looked heavy.

It was difficult for the ball to take a certain speed, and the players could not find the appropriate distance from the defensive impetus of Ferencvaros.

Perhaps this generation of Barcelona players have not been told the old stories of the curse that Hungarian football carries.

Because the Magyar team that lost to West Germany in the 1954 World Cup final in Switzerland was undoubtedly one of the best ever.

Because the Barça of the Hungarians -
