"continue" targeting switch is equivalent to "break". Did you mean to use "continue 2"?

La Liga looks more and more like being a two horse race once again after Barcelona beat third placed Villarreal 3-1 on Saturday evening. In recent seasons the visitors had come away from the Nou Camp with a point or more, but midway through the first half Xavi and Iniesta combined to send Villa through to open the scoring. A few minutes later Messi passed across for Pedro to find the net, but the play was incorrectly pulled up by referee Delgado Ferreiro for a non-existent offside, and almost immediately Nilmar burst through at the other end to equalise.

For the rest of the first half Villarreal were on top, with Cazorla and Bruno missing the target, and Rossi bringing a good save out of Valdés from a free kick. But after the restart Barça wrested back the control, and Messi restored the lead after a rapid passing move with Pedro following a quickly taken free kick. This time the visitors had no response, and with seven minutes to go Messi wrapped things up, playing the ball on past Diego López from a possible offside position after Pedro's shot was deflected by Capdevila. Guardiola's side go top pending Real Madrid's game tomorrow, now five points clear of their opponents in the table.
