Uruguayan midfielder up-stages Messi and Joao Felix with ridiculous strike

Wayne Farry

Is a title race heating up in Spain?

While chaos descends at Camp Nou, Barcelona spent the weekend more harmonious on the pitch, as they defeated Sevilla away from home with goals from Lionel Messi and Ousmané Dembele.

Both they and Real Madrid now sit five points behind league leaders Atletico Madrid, as the top two won at the weekend (catch all the best goals from LaLiga this weekend below).

In looking back on the best goals of the weekend’s action, Joao Felix looked to have edged Messi with his Cantona-esque chest control and volley. Then we witnessed Mauro Arambarri stonking one in from 35 yards out.

The Uruguayan walloped one home for Getafe, against Valencia, and beat the Argentine and Portuguese ballers to our Goal of the Week nod.
