Thatsagoal.com After claiming a last minute victory in last night’s eagerly awaited El Clasico fixture, Lionel Messi now stands with the world at his feet – and plenty of screaming fans and admirers singing his praises from all across the globe.
Although his victorious Barcelona side were nearly forced to leave the Bernabeu with nothing but a single point for their hard-fought efforts, Messi’s influence on the game was as effective as it was spectacular. In the end, there was very little Real Madrid could have ultimately done to have stopped the little Argentinean wizard.

His unrivalled skill and finesse seemingly won’t be matched for quite some time…
'Lol' at the idea Messi isn't obviously the best player in the world.

…but does that simply make him the greatest player of all time?
Messi keeps on peaking. When will he ever reach his peak? Best in modern football & probably best in history. Glad to witness his greatness.

Although Messi has always produced show-stopping performances at a pretty consistent rate…
This performance by Messi would've been the best moment in alot of footballer's career. But for Messi it's just another Sunday night…

…there are always those who seem to see things differently…
Eden Harzard is currently the best player in the world, followed closely by Messi.

Whilst Cristiano Ronaldo will forever be remembered as a truly great player…
Messi, battered, bruised and bloodied plays out of his skin while Ronaldo dropped a straight 0/10 with a fresh pineapple on his head. Levels
