Lionel Messi Scored Two First-Half Free Kicks vs. Sevilla in UEFA Super Cup
By Mike Cardillo
Lionel Messi is amazing at soccer. That’s all there is to say sometimes when you’re watching the Argentine maestro play. Tuesday in the UEFA Super Cup vs. Sevilla he scored on a pair of almost identical free kicks to put Barca up 2-1 — and he did it less than nine minutes apart, no less. (Sevilla went up early on a free kick from Ever Banega.)
Messi scores twice from a direct free kick in an official match, for the FIRST time (586th match).

We’re lucky to live in an era where it’s this easy to watch the greatest soccer player of all time do his thing on a consistent basis.
