Bad move on Vilanova there, the next league game has more importance than this CL game

The final Group G game was meaningless to Barcelona, forcing coach Tito Vilanova to defend his decision to send Messi on as a 58th-minute substitute.

Messi, 25, is trying to equal a 40-year-old scoring record held by Gerd Muller and is one goal shy. He has scored 84 goals in 2012 and has four games to catch Mueller, who scored 85 in a calendar year.

Vilanova denied that played a part in his selection.
Only thing I got right? What about the part where they didnt win? I was right about that too.
