While Barcelona fell short of seizing La Liga today—they needed a win, and only got a draw, at Atletico Bilbao—it's hard to argue any viewer didn't get their money's worth when Lionel Messi danced amongst defenders in a demonstration of ball control that reminds anyone who might have forgotten that he's the best in the world.


Let's talk, though, about Ray Hudson. We've featured him in this space often, and generally love his enthusiasm for what Messi does. Here, though? Maybe he's a bit overboard. (Not that we would suggest he rein himself in; nobody thinks Ray Hudson gets theatrical on purpose, anyway.) [BeIN]
