Dani Alves No Look Pass

Alves No Look Pass to Messi
This Dani Alves no look pass versus Basel is a thing of beauty. Probably one of the best pickups that Barcelona’s new coach Pep Guardiola made in the off-season, and that was the signing of Dani Alves. Adding the crafty Brazilian to the already stacked and skilled Barcelona side, must give opponents nightmares, as they now have to worry about Alves quickness and eagerness to get into the attack even though he plays right back.

It’s Messi who scores the goal in the video below, a delicate controlled pass to the far post, but it was Dani Alves who makes it all happen with his outside of the foot no look chip pass to Messi as he made a smart run towards goal. All the Basel defenders really have no idea what’s about to happen. Here’s the no look assist to Messi by Alves.

The no look pass though is the best, almost as good as Ronaldinho. As far as Barcelona history, Alves has to go down as one of the all time greats for the club. His partnership with Messi was a joy to watch.

FC Barcelona: All Dani Alves’ goals (2008-2016). For an outside defender, Alves scored a fair number of goals during his time at Barcelona. He will be missed. Where will he fall in the history of Barcelona as all-time best defenders…he’s got to be pretty high up the list.
