Lionel Messi scored his 34th hat-trick in the 4-1 win against Celta Vigo, equalling Cristiano Ronaldo's record in the process. Barcelona top the LaLiga table with 25 points from 12 games level with second-placed Real Madrid who also registered a 4-0 win at Eibar.

Lionel Messi was at his best against Celta Vigo as he completed a dead-ball hat-trick scoring one penalty and two free-kicks as Barcelona went top of the table. In doing so, Lionel Messi equalled the record of most hat-tricks (34) in the Spanish top-flight which was set by rival Cristiano Ronaldo during the latter's spell with Real Madrid. LaLiga celebrated Messi's epic milestone with a rather creative post on their Facebook page which was a dialogue said by Bollywood star - Amitabh Bachchan.
