Five penalties in a row: Messi opens the scoring

Leo scores again for Barcelona, Leo opens the scoring for his side again. The captain came out all guns blazing in the Champions League match against Dynamo Kyiv and beat Neshcheret from 11 metres. He went the right way, but he didn't get there on time to avoid the goal.

The penalty came from a grave error from Popoc, who brought Messi down in the box after he snuck in with his characteristic drive with the ball. Koeman's men attacked right from the off, and the opponent's defence were becoming increasingly tense.

This goal from the Argentine is his 5th in a row from the penalty spot. Against Villarreal in La Liga, Ecuador for Argentine, against Ferencvaros in the Champions League, and against Juventus also in the Champions League he has scored.
