The world concerns over Messi’s drought of goals

November 5, 2013 by 888Scoreonline

Soccer stars, especially those who have always been in the eyes of their fans, enjoy being in the notice for each of their performances, and if the star is a player like Messi, the whole world follows each of his moves inside and outside of the ground. Unfortunately, this time four times Ballon d’Or award winner is in the news for unwanted reasons, i.e., his drought of goals. Actually, it has now been four matches passed by he could not find the net; for any other player in the world, this would have been normal, but not for Messy. Though, Barcelona is winning, but world is waiting to see their favorite starlet back in action. In a recent social message via a Chinese micro blogging site Tencent Weibo, he accepted his failure to score off late, however he also said his injuries are letting him down this time. Notably, the 26-year-old Argentine did not score in his last 301 La Liga minutes which is a record in itself looking at his magnificent spell full of firing goals last year. Though, he is out of his thigh muscle injury officially, there is something wrong with Barca star and he is confident to soon recover of it

Barcelona defeated Espanyol at Camp Nou on Friday with 1-0 which ensured new manager Gerardo Martino’s undefeated run of first 100 days. Messi wrote on the blogging site, “Games against Espanyol are always very difficult. I am still not at 100 percent physically, but I am sure that with the run of games I will pick up rhythm.”

Many are blaming Messi’s hasty preseason schedule for his exhaustion wherein he traveled almost 90000 kilometer to complete his professional commitments. This season, he has only scored 12 goals out of 14 played games, which is an unwanted record for a player like him. Those, who are following this legendry forward, know how the insides have been in the Barcelona squad, especially after the arrival of Brazilian sensation Neymar at Camp Nou. If we look at the current forward line, Barcelona has no scarcity of star strikers; in fact, Neymar and Alexis Sanchez are filling the space perfectly at the moment.

Next few days will again put Messi on the spot line and everyone will find out if he can break his own created jinx. Anyway, no one can deny the rule Leo enjoyed in last few years, and everyone would eagerly wait for his comeback and again conquest the world as he has been doing in last few seasons.
