Lionel Messi produces football that us mortals can only dream about, but for Marca 'La Pulga' is nothing more than an ongoing nightmare. Messi orchestrated Barcelonas passage to the last eight of the Champions League with a spellbinding display, capped with two cracking goals, but it appears Marca have let that one slip them by. Any mention of Messis magical performance on the front cover? Nope. Instead a full page on Marcas tribute to, ahem, Muhammad Ali. Such a shame that Spains leading sports newspaper feels the need to completely ignore one of the jewels in Spanish footballs crown, simply because he doesn't turn out in white. Surely the brilliance of Messi transcends footballing rivalries.
