Messi to miss next game

Lionel Messi will miss Paris Saint-Germain’s away game to Metz on Wednesday due to a knee injury.

PSG coach, Mauricio Pochettino, said this was the reason behind his surprise decision to take the six-time Ballon d’Or winner off against Lyon at the weekend.

Messi underwent an MRI today after taking a knock to his left knee during Sunday’s 2-1 win.
