Few days ago, specifically on Friday, there was a shift of great responsibility in the Catalan's big club Barcelona. It was really an intense moment filled with uncontrolled efflux of emotions as Andres Iniesta handed over the Captaincy of FC Barcelona to Lionel Messi. The midfield maestro and Spanish national team playmaker officially bowed out of the Club's Senior team after captaining the team from 2015 when Xavi left the club for China. Andres Iniesta biggest moment in his career can be said to be the winning goal he scored against the Netherlands in the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, it was his glorious moment.

The Argentine captain,  Father of three and Barcelona's all time highest goal scorer will sure be shouldering both family and Barcelona as the mantle of leadership falls on him. Having captained Argentina to Various Finals, ranging from Copa America to The 2014 World cup final in Brazil, where Mario Gotze's goal denied Argentina and Messi the trophy, The Talisman looks forward to putting his World cup woes beside him and putting his best to display this season.

Appointed to Assist him are Sirgio Busquest, Gerald Pique and Sergio Roberto. This will certainly be the first time since 2014/15 season that all captains are products of the LA Masia Academy, that's a nice one.

With Barca looking forward to take over European Football once again as it was in the days of Pep Guadiola(2008-2012), with super signings like Cutinho from Liverpool, Arturo Vidal from Bayern Munich, Dembele and Malcolm, all set for the showdown, one can only imagine the venom they look forward to unleashing in the world of Football.

Messi could certainly be the Moses that will take them to that Promised land. Tonight Super Cup Match against a very good Side Sevilla will be a pointer to what is to happen in European football, as Barcelona are ready to claim back their stolen throne from Real Madrid.

Messi may have had the worst World Cup in his caree. He had only managed to register one goal to his name in the just concluded Russia 2018 World cup, and will later be eliminated by France who went on to win the Trophy in the round of sixteen. Indeed, he is back to club duty, and the goal dragon is ready to reclaim his throne as the Best Player the game has ever seen.

Tonight BARCA takes on Sevilla in the much awaited Spanish Super cup, and Messi is hopeful he will be raising his first trophy as Barcelona's captain, 'am hopeful too. Arturo Vidal and Malcolm will also be lifting their first trophy with the Catalan giants tonight. Let the games begin!

My Prediction: Barcelona 3-1 Sevilla.
