Barcelona continued their perfect start to the season in La Liga with a comprehensive win over bottom side Levante. After being held out for 34 minutes the visitors finally got themselves ahead through Neymar, who rounded the keeper and slotted home with ease, following a sumptuous ball over the top from Lionel Messi -  his five assist of the season already. Five minutes later Barcelona had the opportunity to extend their lead with that man Messi again the architect, closing in on goal before being hacked down by both Loukas Vyntra and Tono Garcia - however bizarrely only the former got the red card despite both of them involved in the altercation.
