Messi started his first
domestic match since the end of March, but was taken off in the 68th
minute having apparently failed to recover from the injury problems that
have dogged the latter part of his season.
It meant his run of
having scored in 21 successive league matches came to a halt, but Barca
did recover from 1-0 down when he left the pitch despite needing to
complete the match with only 10 men having made all possible
replacements.
The victory that leaves the Catalans on course to match Real Madrid's points record from last season.
Having clinched a fourth
title in five seasons when second-placed Real could only draw with
Espanyol on Saturday, Barca went behind five minutes after halftime in
the Spanish capital.
