Levante 1 - 4 Barcelona : Tello treble powers Barca to Copa win
1st Leg
Lionel Messi marked his 400th appearance for Barcelona with a 4-1 win at Levante in the Copa del Rey quarter-final first leg, but for once found himself upstaged as Cristian Tello hit a hat-trick.
But the Argentinian still more than played his part by laying on all of Barca's goals.
Denied by the hosts in the first half, Messi withdrew into midfield to turn playmaker and place four precise passes behind the defense that led to an own goal in the 53rd minute and Tello's treble in the 60th, 81st and 86th.
Levante had held Barcelona to a 1-1 draw at Ciutat de Valencia Stadium just four days earlier in the Spanish league, and it was on course toward a similar feat after Nabil El Zhar netted in the 31st.
