Messi has confirmed missing this week's Champions League match against Leipzig due to the deterioration of the injury, which will undoubtedly make all fans who like him feel sad. However, he is not the only main player who missed this game. Prior to this, Ramos, Paredes and Verratti had already decided not to qualify for the Champions League, so they were all absent from the team's big roster without suspense.
At 4:00 a.m. Beijing time on November 4, Ligue 1 giants Paris will challenge Leipzig away. Before this round of matches, Paris Greater Paris won 2 wins and 1 draw, ranking first in the group with 7 points, while the opponent lost 3 games and ranked first from the bottom. Therefore, this round of matches is undoubtedly more important for the home team, and if it loses, it will be out of the group early.
The two sides met in the first leg, and Paris was once reversed by two goals in the case of a one-goal lead. However, in a critical moment, Pochettino changed the situation on the field by changing into a three-back team, scoring two goals in the last minute to reverse the score and finally win 3-2. As the hero of the team's victory, Messi not only scored twice in this campaign, but also ceded the penalty right to Mbappe, but unfortunately the latter did not score.
Although Messi has not yet fully integrated into the team, it can be seen from the last round of Champions League matches that he played an important role in the team. Unfortunately, Messi was replaced at half-time due to physical discomfort in last weekend's match against Lille. After the match, Pochettino said that Messi was replaced for safety. Perhaps at that time, Bo Shuai did not expect that Messi's injury would be so serious.
Before the trip to Leipzig, Paris Greater Paris had been observing Messi's injuries. According to the latest news, Messi has a new injury after the injury in the last round, and in addition to the discomfort of the hamstring in his left leg, the knee also has pain. According to Argentine media infobase, the root cause of Messi's left knee injury was actually Argentina's match with Venezuela in September, when he suffered a bad foul from his opponent. For the next 2 months, Messi suffered from a knee injury and never recovered.
That is to say, in the match against Lille, Messi's left knee injury worsened. It is understood that Messi has decided to go to Spain to cure the injury and will miss the next few games, which is not a good thing for Paris.
In addition to Messi, there are three other main players in Paris who are also determined to miss this round of champions league matches, namely former Real Madrid captains Ramos, Paredes and Verratti. Ramos has not played for the team since joining the team. It is understood that he will continue to carry out personal training. Midfielder Paredes will be sidelined for a while due to a serious injury on the last international matchday. In addition, the midfield core Verratti will be absent for at least 3 weeks due to a left hip injury, and he is basically sure that he will return with Ramos and Paredes after the next international match.
Fortunately, there is still a lot of talent in the Grand Paris team, especially the frontcourt. Messi can't play, they still have Neymar, and Mbappe, who has recovered from injury and is sure to make a comeback.
