Messi gets knee injury

The 28-year-old collided with goalkeeper Javi Varas inside the 18-yard box after just three minutes.

Messi attempted to continue but failed to shrug off the knock, with Barca coach Luis Enrique replacing him with Munir seven minutes later.

The loss of their star man comes as the club bid to bounce back from their shock 4-1 defeat to Celta Vigo on Wednesday.
