who had to get past three defenders himself before being able to feed Messi outside

AUSTIN, Texas -- You know youre good when Dr. Rubén Pizarro-Silva gives you a nickname.Like Colt Pistolas McCoy. Jordan La Liebre Shipley was The Hare. Derrick Johnson was El Comandante, The Commander. Charlie Strong is simply El Jefe.Texas running back DOnta Foreman doesnt really go by any nicknames on a daily basis, but surely college footballs leading rusher deserves one. That one came easy for Pizarro while admiring Foremans running style.Listen to a Longhorns en Espa?ol broadcast on Saturdays this fall and youll hear Pizarro excitedly bellow it out: TOUCHDOWN LONGHORNS! TOUCHDOWN DONTA EL BúFALO FOREMAN!Pizarro is the Spanish-language voice of the Longhorns, serving the fútbol americano fans of a state in which nearly 40 percent speak Spanish. Hes been doing this since 1995, long before this service became more popular in college football.Funny enough, its really his side job. Pizarro is a medical physician during the week. He got into sports broadcasting to help pay his way through his residency in Monterrey, Mexico, almost 30 years ago.The broadcasting, I dont know, its just very addictive, Pizarro said. You want to do it better every day, every time you go on the air. God provided me with a skill set I didnt know I had.He got to Austin on a whim, selected in a casting call for a co-host gig of Super Show Deportivo, a Spanish sports show in 1994 and 1995 sponsored by NFL Films. Hed sworn off the media side when he finished his residency, wanting to focus on the sports medicine profession. But the broadcasting business sucked him right back in.Pizarro has called NFL games, Stanley Cup finals, all-star games, even minor league baseball, but he fell in love with Texas football. He attended the Longhorns 1978 Sun Bowl game in El Paso, Texas, and says he was captivated by the logo, the helmet, the brand.Hed never been to a Texas home game until 1995, his first year of the job. He began this humble operation as the color commentator for select games, then shifted to play-by-play after a few seasons. By 1997, Texas was broadcasting all games, home and away, in Spanish. What started with one local AM station has grown and grown. Austin became the states first market to have a Spanish-language sports station a decade ago.I know the Dallas Cowboys had Spanish broadcasts in the 1990s, but it was a novelty back then and it was an unusual thing, said Craig Way, Texas English-language play-by-play man. And you never heard about it in college football. When it started here, I thought it was Texas being ahead of the curve.Today, Texas Spanish-language calls are available to an international audience thanks to online streaming, and some games get picked up by Sirius XM. Pizarro continues to be amazed by the growing distribution and acknowledges that, when he started, he was doing this for almost no money and for the spirit more than the pocket.That worked for him, because this is still just one of his many jobs. Pizarro never strayed from the medical field. He works with a local cardiologist in the mornings. Then he preps for his three-days-a-week sports newscast on Univision. He has a 30-minute Sunday night show, too, called Contacto Deportivo Extra for which he hosts, produces, writes, edits and turns the lights off when I finish.With three or four jobs, Ive raised three daughters and paid for college for them, he says proudly. Its been so good.On Saturdays, hes at his finest. Pizarro calls games with his color commentator, Jesus Mendoza, and producer Oscar Meza. His youngest daughter, Daniela, joins him in the booth to do the ad reads and serve as a spotter-in-training.The best way to describe his broadcasts might be pure enthusiasm. Way, the English-language voice of the Longhorns, appreciates the more passionate and narrative nature of the way Pizarro sees and calls games.The way he calls a game is different, and the whole Spanish style of calling it is different, Way said. Rubén is a bit more of a storyteller with it. Its a different way of telling it, but its the way that translates best to his audience. He knows his audience.Hes still a bit of a rarity even in the Big 12. TCU started doing Spanish-language broadcasts in 2010, and Oklahoma began its operation last year. The press boxes they visit usually arent meant to accommodate an extra radio crew, so theyve accumulated a long list of tales from their road trips with the Longhorns.Pizarro called Texas BCS title game win over USC from the roof of the Rose Bowl, right underneath the light towers and right next to the snipers in place as a precaution to watch over the crowd. Hes confident he kept them entertained.Theyd hear us raising our voices and getting agitated during the game, he said, and they smiled.A roof over his head can be a luxury some Saturdays. Over the years, he jokes, hes become a rooftop specialist. Hes called a game in the snow in Lincoln, Nebraska. He once sat in a black trash bag to stay warm in cold drizzle and hard wind at the Cotton Bowl. He laughs about the time some inebriated and confused Iowa State fans heckled him in Ames, Iowa. This season, at Cal, he couldnt get a radio booth so he and Mendoza loudly called the game from press box seats next to the NFL scouts.Hes leaned on and learned from Way, whom he calls my English brother. Way calls him Doc and has a deep respect for his counterparts work ethic. His devotion to his role is pretty amazing, Way says, when you realize Pizarro still considers himself a physician most days of the week.I didnt expect to get to this, Pizarro said. But what I have done is do your next show like it will be your last one. Make it the best, because you dont know if youre going to be there tomorrow. If you do it that way, youre going to keep improving.Pizarro has cherished seeing Spanish-language college football broadcasting slowly spread to more schools. He dreams of making Mexico the loudest burnt orange fans outside of the United States and hopes to convert more Texas fans throughout the world, one passionate touchdown call and nickname at a time.

MADRID -- Lionel Messi put on a show in Barcelonas final Spanish league game of the year, scoring once and mesmerizing with his dribbling skills to set up two other goals in a 4-1 win against Espanyol in the city derby on Sunday.Luis Suarez struck the first two goals and Jordi Alba added another in a victory that left Barcelona three points behind leader Real Madrid ahead of the winter break. Madrid, which won FIFAs Club World Cup in Japan this weekend, has a game in hand.Messi dazzled the crowd at Camp Nou for the first time when he cleared four defenders outside the area -- including by rolling the ball between the legs of one of them -- before having his shot parried. Suarez pounced on the loose ball to score his second goal in the 67th minute.That was a PlayStation play by Messi, Suarez said. I wish he had ended it with the goal, it would have been one of the best in the last few years.A minute later, Messi used his pace and clever dribbles to get past four defenders again, and then passed for Alba to find the net from inside the area.After nearly scoring following a neat feint that fooled two defenders inside the area, Messi finished the night in style by finding the net from close range after a pass by Suarez in the 90th.For the second time of the night, the crowd got to its feet and chanted Messi, Messi.In the second half we saw the most spectacular version of our players up front, especially Messi, Barcelona coach Luis Enrique said. We shouldnt stop praising something just because it happens so many times that it looks routine. We shouldnt get used to it, its unique.Suarez, the leagues leading scorer with 12 goals along with Messi, had opened the scoring in the 18th, while David Lopez netted Espanyols lone goal in the 79th.Messi started the remarkable move that led to Suarezs second goal after a superb run by Andres Iniesta, who had to get past three defenders himself before being able to feed Messi outside the area. Iniesta had also unleashed a spectacular long-range pass to set up Suarezs first goal on the break.ddddddddddddWhen we are all playing well as a group, it makes it easier for the individual players to make things happen, Iniesta said. Leo is crucial for us.Neymar didnt find the net but was still impressive, creating scoring opportunities and entertaining the crowd with his play. The Brazil striker started the move that led to Barcelonas third goal.We played well, Espanyols Lopez said, but when you make a small mistake and give them as much as a meter, they will score against you.The result ended Espanyols nine-game unbeaten streak in the league, leaving it in ninth place after 16 rounds. It had defeated Barcelonas reserves 1-0 in October to win the Catalan Super Cup, a competition played by Catalonias top two clubs.Espanyols starting goalkeeper Diego Lopez had to be substituted in the 53rd minute after sustaining a severe cut to his right when he collided with Suarez while making a sliding save inside the area.---LEGANES 1, EIBAR 1Portuguese substitute Tiago Bebe Correia scored six minutes after coming on to give Eibar a 1-1 draw at 10-man Leganes.Bebe equalized in the 76th minute with a shot that deflected off a defender and fooled substitute goalkeeper Diego Barrios.Starting goalkeeper Iago Herrerin was sent off in the 26th for a bad foul outside the area while trying to stop a counterattack.Playing in the first division for the first time, Leganes has drawn three in a row and hasnt won in four rounds.---DEPORTIVO LA CORUNA 2, OSASUNA 0Deportivo La Coruna defeated last-place Osasuna to move four points clear of the relegation zone ahead of the break.First-half goals by Florin Andone and Ryan Babel secured victory for the hosts, which lie 15th in the 20-team standings.It was the sixth straight loss for promoted Osasuna, which stayed with only seven points from 16 games.---Tales Azzoni on Twitter: http://twitter.com/tazzoni ' ' '
