As you would expect of a footballer carrying over 500 goals to their name, there are not many teams in that Lionel Messi has not scored against, or grounds that he has failed to find the net in.
The list becomes even shorter when we consider those domestic opponents who have managed to keep the Argentine sufficiently quiet; Murcia, Xerex and Cadiz.
With Chelsea and Girona both knocked on the head recently, Messi's previous trips to Las Palmas were one of those that had remained fruitless.
Although he had scored against tonight's hosts before, he had never got one on the road. Well, in spectacular circumstances, he ticked them off the list in tonight's league tie.
Although some would argue that the 'keeper shouldn't have been beaten at his near post, with the speed that Messi put on this shot, it would be hard to point fingers; something the laughter of the two commentators above exemplifies.
