Messi and Neymar Team Up For a Double-Rainbow Goal

Messi and Neymar team up for another wonder goal. Maybe not intentionally, but it was beautiful all the same.

This, from Barcelona's match against Levante, is a pretty odd goal, but it's beautiful in it's own weird way. Messi hit an arcing cross and Neymar—possibly mis-hitting a pass to Pedro, who had a better angle—struck another high-arcing ball that popped over the goalkeeper and somehow landed inside the goal without hitting the crossbar. The double rainbow goal; it's so beautiful…but what does it mean?

Update: Messi has notched a hat trick and Barcelona keep on trucking. They now lead 5-0 thanks to this ripper from Luis Suarez.
