Lionel Messi left scarred after Barcelona’s clash with Sevilla

Lionel Messi was back in training on Sunday and it was not hard to see a little bit of damage to his right leg after Friday’s 0-0 draw with Sevilla.

The Barcelona captain was hacked down by Diego Carlos during the game and reacted angrily to the challenge, jumping up and giving the center-back a push.

There’s been a bit of debate about the challenge and how much contact Carlos made, but it certainly seems like he did get quite a bit of Messi.

Barcelona are due to train again on Monday morning ahead of their next game on Tuesday against Athletic.
