Watch How Lionel Messi destroyed two defenders at once before scoring v Villarreal

Cristiano Ronaldo may have taken home a fifth Ballon d'Or award this week, but Lionel Messi has started the 2017-18 campaign like a man possessed.
The 30-year-old has already scored 20 goals and provided five assists for club and country this season with Barcelona commanding a five point lead at the top of the La Liga table.
Nevertheless, a Sunday night trip to Villarreal is never an easy task and Barcelona didn't have it all their way at the Estadio de la Ceramica.
In fact, it wasn't until the 72nd minute that Blaugrana were able to break the deadlock.
Sliding through the Villarreal defence with ease and rounding the goalkeeper, Luis Suarez eventually fired Barcelona into the lead with a fine finish.
The Uruguayan nearly had another just minutes later as Messi began to work his magic - delivering a breath-taking lobbed pass that was volleyed just wide of the target.
In the 83rd minute, though, Messi bagged a goal of his own and it came in typically brilliant fashion.
