Samuel Eto'o netted a brace as he helped Barcelona notch an amazing 3-0 victory over a struggling Valencia side at the Mestalla. Frank Rijkard will be very happy with the clinical strikes by Eto'o during 13th and 27th minute before former Chelsea striker Eidur Gudjohnson added a third just after the hour mark. However, Barcelona received a big blow just before the break when Messi went off injured. The young playmaker is set to be out for a month and will definitely miss next week's crunch tie against Real Madrid.

With this win, Barcelona move to within a point of La Liga leaders Real Madrid.
