WATCH: Barcelona's lethal counter attack leads to fine one-touch goal from Messi

Barcelona didn't need long to get going on Saturday

Lionel Messi opened the scoring for Barcelona on Saturday in La Liga action at Leganes off a lethal counter attack, as Barca overpowered the hosts just a quarter of an hour into the game. Watch as Luis Suarez uses his strength to push off his defender and feed Messi at the near post. With Neymar waiting at the back post, the goalkeeper left the front side open and Messi wasn't going to miss from there.

Suarez, Messi and Neymar, the scariest trio in world soccer to have to stop on the counter. Leganes tried, but it was too tall of a task.
