One of those currents of opinion with an aftertaste of revenge had been installed in Barcelona for some time: with

Messi

, reconstruction is impossible.

He was the footballer who did not run, but walked.

The one who looked at his companions with a frown.

The one who was hiding in difficulty.

The one who forgot to mark fouls.

The selfish man who, tired of losing, finally wanted to flee.

Spokesmen for the old regime, wearing moth-eaten ties with a desire for media power, some newly minted careerists, and a good mob that laugh at the spoils of

Trumpism,

signed up for this theory.

.

It turns out that Messi, at 33 years old, is already the top scorer of the championship (11) after scoring two more goals in Los Cármenes.

That the faults stopped being a torment.

And that Barcelona, ​​yesterday, today, and tomorrow, only makes sense with the

ten

embedded in his shirt.

[Narration and statistics]

The wind is already coming from the head, something that Barcelona begins to notice, which has threaded three victories for the first time this season, four in their last away games.

Such a record, not so long ago, was an entelechy.

Messi is not only mentoring

Pedri

, but he is beginning to enjoy that new habitat with

Griezmann

and

Dembélé

that has changed the face of the team.

Barcelona even sees how controversial actions begin to be resolved in their favor.

Ricardo de Burgos Bengoetxea

, the main referee at Los Cármenes, scored on the three Barça goals.

He hit two of them.

It missed with a bang on one.

And he left Granada with ten due to a rigorous expulsion of

Vallejo

after a bad control by

Braithwaite

, already 0-4 and 12 minutes from the end.

Let's recap.

Barcelona dawned in the cradle of

Ter Stegen

, whose granite left hand prevented Puertas' opening goal.

They were those of

Koeman

still distrusting their central defense -

Umtiti

accompanied

Mingueza

after injury in heating

Araujo

and punishment of

Lenglet

- and turning the defeat suffered last season in Los Cármenes when a seemingly irrelevant action allowed its take off.

A center short ended in the boots of

Busquets

, who looked for the inside pass to Griezmann, who was waiting offside.

Before the ball reached the Frenchman, however,

it occurred

to

Soldado to

put the penalty and clear to where he was, yes, Griezmann.

This invalidated the infringement.

The azulgrana did not have more to hole and the referee, according to the VAR, did not oppose anything.

The hand of Busquets

Yes De Burgos Bengoetxea was wrong in the action in which Messi, with a caress to the squad, signed the 0-2.

Although it is true that the latest regulations only allow goals by hand to be annulled when the infraction occurs just before the goal is materialized, the referee made a mistake by not punishing Busquets for taking the ball with his palm in the center of the field at the origin of the play.

Diego Martínez

, Granada coach, responded with a bottle on the bench.

There was no objection to Barcelona's third goal, when Pedri was knocked down on the edge while the game was developing a few meters further.

It was then that Messi asked for the time and ended the losing streak with direct free kicks.

Neva

, who had thrown herself to the ground behind the barrier making use of those strange tricks created to make life more difficult for Rosario, was the one who best saw the goal.

Messi only had to direct his shot, low, through the gap created between Busquets and Mingueza.

The goalkeeper

Rui Silva

, despite the fact that the ball entered his post, did not flinch.

Sentenced the afternoon, Barcelona finally got ready to enjoy the day.

His second act improved upon the first.

Koeman allowed himself to give rest to his three capital pieces, Messi,

De Jong

and Pedri.

He gave Pjanic a bit of rope, forgot for a while his antipathy for

Riqui Puig

, and enjoyed like a child Griezmann's second goal, efficient after Dembélé's assistance.

Barcelona begins to leave their fears behind.

And he trusts Messi again.

Failure to do so condemned him to nothing.
