2 of Pique's 3 goals for Barcelona so far this season were headers after a corner #fcblive Against Ajax and today [via @sarmientosandra]
The one against Ajax was a free kick.
Does anyone know whether this was his first header goal from a corner in his career? Would be interesting to know.
no it was from open play.. iniesta corner to neymr and then a cross
Good game again by Piqué, not just because of the goal but he was one of the few who really wanted to win.

His determination this season has been excellent, he looks really motivated and eager to win... And now he's pairing it with great football, so that's the kind of CB we need...
I think he knows that he has to lead by example now and is becoming more of a leader within the team. With Puyol, Xavi and Valdes nearing the end of their Barca careers there he recognises that there is a void there that has to be filled. A fully focused Pique would make a great captain.
Ahead of Pique is Messi and then Iniesta in captaining.
Agree, motm for me - not just for the goal but at least he showed some motivation and heart.
As soon as Puyol got back , Pique turned beast mode on . I guess he really is afraid of those slaps...
