VIDEO: Messi Travels To Barca After Stunning Last Minute Win For PSG

The PSG team got two days off thanks to Lionel Messi’s magnificent injury-time free kick against Lille, allowing the Argentine to travel to Barcelona.

The seven-time winner of the Ballon d’Or enjoyed a very uneventful Sunday at Parc des Princes until he was required to produce a moment of game-changing brilliance in the final seconds.

Messi, who has always thrived in such situations, blasted a spectacular 95th-minute shot in off the post to give PSG a thrilling 4-3 victory over Lille and a well-earned respite, which relieved coach Christophe Galtier has given.

The World Cup winner has taken advantage of the fact that training in Paris won’t start again until Wednesday to travel back to Barcelona, where he was born and raised. This is the first time the mercurial 35-year-old has been in Spain since he led Argentina to World Cup victory in Qatar 2022.

During PSG’s match against Lille, Kylian Mbappe scored two goals and Neymar suffered an unlucky injury that forced him to leave the field on a stretcher. The reigning Ligue 1 champions are scheduled to return to action on Sunday when they travel to face their old rivals Marseille.
