Lionel Messi survived just 20 minutes of Barcelona’s 4-1 win away at Real Betis on Sunday night as the Argentinean superstar was subbed early on with a thigh injury. Messi was withdrawn after Betis’ José Caro cut across the Catalan forward with his boot. Messi was instantly hurt, and within minutes he was replaced by Andres Iniesta. Messi is now facing his fourth injury of the season, and many are saying the striker’s body can’t keep up with the current schedule. Cesc Fabregas said as much telling reporters that Messi ”should take good care of himself and not rush his recovery.” Messi suffered a quadriceps problem in pre-season, while the Flea was also unavailable with injury at the start of the season against Malaga. Messi was then absent for several weeks after he collected a hamstring problem against Almeria. The Argentine star will undergo various medical tests on MOnday to determine the extent of his latest injury. Messi has only scored half of the goals CR7 has scored in the league this season. Wish him early recovery.
