Gerardo Martino referred to Lionel Messi’s injury
“In principle it is a scar on an old injury. In the Argentine National Team he did not have a muscle injury. I believe that in this case it is exactly the same, that there is no muscle injury. But we must be cautious and wait,” said Gerardo Martino at the press conference after Messi’s early departure from the match with Toronto FC on matchday 33 of the MLS.
