After impressively starting the season, Lionel Messi has been facing problems lately, similar to Cristiano Ronaldo's poor performance in Spain. In yesterday's match, the Argentinian had to break his month-long goal drought, but the sideline referee didn't see the ball crossing the line of "Valencia"'s goal. L. Messi was left without his goal, but he made an impressive assist that led to a draw. L. Messi has been unable to score a goal for five consecutive matches in all competitions. This is the worst streak for the Argentinean recorded since 2010. One of the best footballers in the world wearing Barcelona's jersey has not stood out in five consecutive matches, and in another one, the striker could not represent the Argentine national team in a match against Russia. The Argentinian has scored 16 goals in over 20 matches this season.
