Rafinha welcomed Messi back for Barcelona win

Rafinha welcomed Leo Messi back for Barcelona's win over Deportivo La Coruna.

Messi came off the bench to help Barca to a 4-0 victory.

“Messi? He's the best player in the world. It's that simple. Three minutes on the pitch and a goal," said Rafinha.

Finally he backed Paco Alcacer to score soon, despite missing three chances against Depor: “He's just lacking the ball going in the goal and once it does, many goals will follow. We've already said that. He is a born goal scorer and has a nose for goal."
