Messi managed to snatch victory, in what appeared to be a certain draw, away from Barcelona's bitter rivals Real Madrid in a hotly contested El Clasico.
Lionel Messi produced another outrageous performance as Barcelona beat Real Madrid to move top of La Liga, scoring his 500th goal for the club in stoppage time to seal a 3-2 win.
TV images also showed that a frustrated Ronaldo felt Marcelo or another Madrid player should have done whatever was necessary to stop Barca from mounting a counter-attack so late in the game. Alba cut the ball back and there, on the edge of the area, was Messi: he had scored earlier in the night and he had been kicked, many times, and elbowed (by Marcelo) in a clash that left him bleeding from his nose and mouth.
Madrid now need to take at least 16 points from their final six La Liga games to be guaranteed the title.

Real Madrid and Barcelona put on a classic that saw the latter come out 3-2 winners thanks to a last-gasp Lionel Messi victor. Sergio Ramos got booted from the field with a red card after the ref saw his nasty tackle of Lionel. We are very happy because it was not easy after being knocked out [of the Champions League] the other day. I've said it so many times - Ronaldo helped Messi to be better, and Messi helps Ronaldo to be better.
"I'm not going to blame my players. We're well placed in two competitions and we'll keep working as we were before".
