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

It had to happen sometime! After only dropping two points in the first half of the season, Barcelona finally lost their first league game when they fell to a 3-2 defeat at Real Sociedad on Saturday evening. Messi had never scored in the Anoeta stadium, but he rectified that with only seven minutes gone after Fàbregas stepped over Iniesta's pass to leave him free to beat Bravo. Soon afterwards Pedro hit the post, and he too got his name on the scoresheet after Xavi and Dani Alves combined to set him up midway through the first half. It looked like Barça were heading for another comfortable win, but Messi's luck ran out when his lob hit the post and rolled along the goal-line before being cleared by Mikel González, and with five minutes to go to half time Carlos Vela passed the ball out for Chory Castro to get one back. Messi tested Bravo again before the break with a spectacular volley, but ten minutes after the restart Piqué got himself sent off for a second bookable offence, and seven minutes later Castro equalised with a shot which came off Mascherano's knee to wrong foot Valdés. Neither side had any clear cut chances after that, but with a draw seemingly on the cards Carlos Martínez crossed in for Agirretxe to get between his markers and poke home the winner. The headlines raced across the world - they are human!
