Update: 11:55AM Lionel Messi scored two goals and set up two more to lead Barcelona’s 4-1 win over crosstown rival Espanyol, in a hot-tempered Copa del Rey clash on Wednesday.

Felipe Caicedo grabbed Espanyol a ninth-minute lead at Camp Nou, but Messi hit
right back four minutes later.

The star forward put the hosts ahead with an unstoppable free kick just before
halftime, and assisted Gerard Pique soon after the interval.
