barca still lack of defensive option.. why is it so hard to get one? or at least promote some player from B team or utilize Marc Bartra to the max.

Xavi Hernández has won his 25th major title, and his 22nd with FCB, to make him the most successful player in Spanish football history. He also broke the record for minutes played in the Spanish Supercup, 1,162, and has tied with Guardiola and Amor for the most games in the competition, 14.

Last night was the sixth time Xavi has won the Supercup, a tally he shares with Txiki Beguiristain and Bakero, as well as current team-mates Víctor Valdés, Puyol and Iniesta. The last player to win five Spanish Supercups was ex Real Madrid star Manolo Sanchís.

I missed this match... I set the alarm at 2:55 PM instead of AM 

Anyways, with this hattrick, Messi became the first ever player in La Liga history to score 100 away goals in La Liga.

Messi - 125 away games, 100 away goals.
Hugo Sanchez - 170 away games,  99 away goals.
Ral Gonzalez - 270 away games, 87 away goals.

Sad. Still no central defender
