Leo Messi Scores 2 Stunning Free-Kicks for Barcelona in UEFA Super Cup
Barcelona went into the UEFA Super Cup against Sevilla in Tbilisi, Georgia, as big favourites.
However, after just three minutes, Ever Banega gave Sevilla a shock lead with a stunning free-kick.
How did Leo Messi react? Within 13 minutes, he had scored two free-kicks of his own.

The man is amazing.
Barcelona made it 3-1 just before half-time, with Rafinha scoring after some delightful work by Luis Suarez.

In the 52nd minute, Suarez then got on the scoresheet himself to make it 4-1.

Jose Antonio Reyes did get one back for Sevilla in 57th minute.
And things really got interesting in the 72nd minute, when Kevin Gameiro scored a penalty.

Amazingly, Sevilla levelled things up in the 81st minute as new signing Yevhen Konoplyanka made it 4-4.
There was one more twist, though, as Pedro won the game for Barcelona in extra time on the same day he asked to leave the club.
