Lionel Messi guides Barcelona to a 2-0 win over Osasuna

Barcelona does not waste an opportunity to get three points against Osasuna. With Lionel Messi playing his part on field in both the goals that led to a late win. Lionel Messi played with both generations to set up their goal. At first, he set up Jordi Alba who pushed a goal home in the first half itself and later Messi set up the 18-year-old Ilaix Moriba who came off the bench to curl in a goal late in the second half.

Barcelona prepares for the Madrid derby on Sunday while they remain two points adrift of the leaders of La Liga and hope to gain a leg upcoming Sunday. Ronald Koeman's side was looking a little out of touch this season but 10 wins from 11 matches put them back in contention for this season’s trophy though Atletico’s two-game lead could mean trouble.
