    Messi's left boot: Messi is back!

    The Argentine had not scored in three games before today. For him that's a full-blown goal drought...

    I can't see any way back for Sevilla here. The bookies obviously agree, they are 350-1 to win this game in 90 minutes.

    Although we all said that about Roma too...

    Sevilla defender Gabriel Mercado brings down Luis Suarez but escapes. He'd already been booked for a foul on the Barcelona striker. Next offence and he'll be off.

    This is as good as Barcelona have played all season. Wow.

    Luis Suarez gets the ball on the halfway line and finds Lionel Messi. The Argentine plays a first time pass back to Suarez, who runs in on goal and slips the ball past the keeper.

    Fantastic football.

    Sevilla defender Sergio Escudero is lucky not to be sent off. Andres Iniesta plays the ball to Lionel Messi, who steps over the ball on the halfway line and he's in on goal before Escudero pulls him down. A clear, clear goalscoring opportunity even though he was 60 yards from goal. But it's only a yellow card.

    Jesus Navas had just started to get back too - but only because Messi had been pulled back.

    That's Lionel Messi's 15th goal in 18 finals for Barcelona (not including two-legged Spanish Super Cups).

    He has scored in 11 of the previous 17 - and they've won all 11.

    Messi has scored more goals against Sevilla than any other team - 31 in 34.

    Controversial. Lionel Messi is in on goal... but the flag goes up for offside. He wasn't offside though. Lucky escape for Sevilla.

    Lionel Messi

    Lionel Messi becomes the second player to ever score in five Copa del Rey finals. And it's a great goal.

    Jordi Alba plays a one-two with Andres Iniesta and backheels the ball to Messi - who smashes the ball into the roof of the net.

    Alba, Iniesta and Messi - textbook Barcelona.

    Amrul Choudhury: To think Coutinho could be a treble winner by winning domestic League and Cup with Barcelona and Champions League medal with Liverpool. Not a bad debut season.
