He’s losing a lot of liquid, he’s suffering from gastroenteritis,” Santos said of Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of Portugal’s pre-tournament friendly against Nigeria.

Three yellow cards over the course of the competition results in a one-game ban, leaving the three players - who all have two to their name - in a precarious situation ahead of the second leg of the semi-final with Atletico on Tuesday.

Messi cut a folorn figure as Argentina were beaten 1-0 by Germany in the 2014 World Cup final, leaving him without the winners’ medal that would help to cement his place in history alongside Pele and Diego Maradona as one of the game’s greatest players. Tapia – the president of the Argentina Football Association - acknowledged that this might be the 30-year-old’s last opportunity to win the tournament, but said even the five-time Ballon d’Or winner wouldn’t be able to guide Argentina to glory if his team-mates didn’t perform at their best....

Barca are, of course, the only club to have won two trebles. The first of those arrived in 2008-09 under Pep Guardiola, with the second coming in 2014-15 with Luis Enrique in charge. And Lionel Messi, naturally, was at the forefront both times. Current coach Ernesto Valverde was taken aback by questions of a possible treble triumph in this, his debut season at Camp Nou. And it is hardly surprising because he has won just six titles in his career as a manager, five of those in Greece....
La Albiceleste are fifth in the CONMEBOL table, outside the automatic qualification places, following a frustrating 0-0 draw in Uruguay last week.

As usual, it was action packed. Messi hit a free kick into the wall, almost assisted Pedro with a clever cross, curled an exquisite effort into the side netting, dispatched a typically clinical finish with the seconds ticking away and added a stunning second (Barca's fourth) in injury time.
