There is no better remedy to smooth a crisis in blossoming that a firm opening in the Champions. With the figure of questioned Rijkaard more than ever, Henry very far from crack that was expected and a solitary victory in its three parties of League, returned to emerge the slight but impressive figure from Leo Messi to crumble to a Olympique de Lyón (3-0), diminished by the exit of his stars.

To the party it did not need nor a drop of drama. Only minutes before the debut in League of Champions, Laporta ratified its confidence to Rijkaard to calm the spirits. Perhaps for that reason the Dutch technician not very often before it had been seen celebrate the goals him with as much rage. It did it in first, although his author was the heartbroken rival defense Clerc. That yes, the play of Messi and his happens of the affluent death deserved so genuine approval of the rival.

It was minute 20 and until then the Barça it had only shown ways. Intentions before portería rival that neither Henry nor Messi finished defining, confirming the exhibited goleadoras deficiencies in which it goes of season. The Olympique, orphan by the flight of its brains (Abidal, Tiago, Malouda), lived by then to expenses of some genius of its new star, the Benzema young person, or of some blow of free inspiration in a direct one of Juninho.

Nevertheless, to the Barça it cost to him to close the party. Messi did not obtain to it to the edge of the rest, after breaking the waist to a French player, because its closing to almost empty door was with a vindictive Clerc, that expíaba its pains before the surprise of the Camp Nou. Either Ronaldinho, after a brilliant triangulation with Henry, far from it Henry, who seems to have the head in another side and to point he was of being expelled in an absurd action.

It was necessary to wait to sprint final. Between little it intrigues that they caused the benevolent attacks of Baros and Benzema and the null fortune of Deco, whose firings time and time again were with an inspired Vercoutre, returned to appear Messi to seal the first joy of the season. The Argentinean put the bow to a perfect triangulation between Giovani, substitute of Xavi, Deco and Iniesta, with a dry firing from the frontal of the area.

The celebration seemed total judging by the gestures of Rijkaard, that decided to grant minutes to the young person Measure the perimeter of. With both puppies on the turf, Barcelona closed the made goals one.
