Barcelona's pint-sized prophet, Lionel Messi, somehow managed to lift himself higher than anyone else in the Sevilla backline to nod his side into a 3-0 lead in the second leg of the Supercopa de Espana on Wednesday.
The header meant that the Catalonians held a 5-0 advantage over the Andalusian outfit, and were cruising towards their 12th victory in what has become the traditional curtain-raiser of the Spanish season.
