Reuters
Lionel Messi is back.
After spending three weeks on the sidelines with a groin problem, the Argentine superstar made his triumphant return Saturday, and needed all of three minutes to get back on the scoresheet against Deportivo after emerging from the bench in the 55th minute.
In truth, we shouldn't be surprised:
Lionel Messi has now scored 17 goals in 14 matches against Deportivo, including in each of his last eight against them. #FCBlive
