Lionel Messi's assists hand Barcelona win over Real Betis

Lionel Messi came to the rescue of Barcelona, once again, as his hat-trick of assists allowed his side to tame Real Betis 3-2 in La Liga on Sunday. Interestingly, the match saw two red cards being issued, one to each side, while the win allowed Barca to keep up the pace with the table-toppers Real Madrid. Here are further details on this.

Match report
How did the match pan out?

Betis scored the first goal in the sixth minute through a penalty, before Frenkie de Jong equalized it in ninth. Betis got ahead again in the 26th minute, while Sergio Busquets scored at the stroke of half-time to keep the deadlock. While Clément Lenglet scored the winner in the 72nd, he and Nabil Fekir were sent off, as Barca maintained the lead to win.

Quote
This win will give us motivation and extra energy: Setien

"In Bilbao, we played well, but they knocked us out. This win will give us motivation and extra energy for the future," said Barca manager Quique Setien, who was under fire following their Copa del Rey quarters loss to Athletic Bilbao.

Some key stats from the match: Messi became the second player, after Jadon Sancho, to reach the double figures for both goals and assists across the top five European leagues in this season. Messi is also the second player, after Timo Werner, among the players of the top five European leagues, to script a hat-trick of goals and assists in 2019-20.
