Derby?... I Think Not!

Barcelona kicked the living crap out of Valencia today.

Sure, Piatti's goal (minute 9) gave them hope, for about 13 minutes, but then we got to watch The Messi Show.
Messi scored four consecutive goals on poor Diego Alves.
Messi's goals came in minutes 22, 27, 76 and 85.

Xavi wrapped the victory by scoring Barcelona's fifth, in injury time.

Barcelona - Valencia 5-1 (2-1) was the final score.

Okay, so Barcelona is clearly way better than Valencia, as the 11-points difference between second and third attests. But there seems to be very little Barca can do about Real Madrid, on the other hand. Real stays 10 points ahead.

It's amazing that the difference between first and third - 21 points - is bigger now than the difference between 3rd and 19th (only 20).
