Lionel Messi scored two goals and set up another to help Barcelona brush aside Rayo Vallecano 6-0 and keep its share of the Spanish league lead on Saturday, after fellow pacesetter Atletico Madrid rolled over Valladolid 3-0. Barcelona's big win, which included the scoring return of Neymar after a monthlong injury absence, came three days before it visits Manchester City in the Champions League last 16. Adriano opened the scoring after two minutes. Messi netted with a lob in the 36th, and he struck again in the second half along with Alexis Sanchez, Pedro Rodriguez and Neymar. Messi's double gave him 228 goals in league play at the age of 26, tying him with Raul Gonzalez as the competition's third leading all-time scorer. Telmo Zarra holds the record with 251.
