Barcelona Open Champions League Scoring Early

Barcelona did not waste much time to notch their first goal, which was a very Barcelona goal with pinpoint passing.

Barcelona took a 1-0 lead in the fourth minute of the Champions League Final against Juventus with a characteristically surgical team passing effort. Messi put the ball in to Jordi Alba and he spiked it down to Neymar, who dribbled around for a bit before giving it to Andres Iniesta. Iniesta then tapped it over to Rakitic for the goal. It was the fourth quickest goal in a Champions League final and it all happened in a blur.
