Lionel Messi ready and raring to go in Copa del Rey final

Barcelona forward Lionel Messi showed he is motivated for the Copa del Rey final in the Camp Nou on Saturday night, with a message to his Facebook followers.

The striker is ready for the clash with Basque side Athletic Club, which kicks off at 9.30pm CET. 

Messi wrote on the social networking site: "TOmorrow we have a really tough final but we are looking forward to hopefully winning another title. Come on FC Barcelona!"

It fitted in well after Luis Enrique's message that his team were "hyper-motivated" for the game. 

Messi will be hoping to lead by example as Barcelona go for their second trophy of the season.
