Lionel Messi scored two goals as Barcelona beat Getafe to climb to third place in the La Liga table, two points behind second-placed Real Madrid.

Messi broke the deadlock before Getafe equalised through Clement Lenglet’s own goal.

A mix-up between Sofian Chakla and keeper David Soria restored Barca’s lead and Messi made it 3-1.

Enes Unal’s penalty gave Getafe hope but goals by Ronald Araujo and Antoine Griezmann sealed the points.

Barcelona are five points behind leaders Atletico Madrid, who they host on 8 May, but have one game in hand.
