Valverde on Messi's physical condition ahead of testing month for Barcelona
Thursday, March 29 2018 by 7MTV-
SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Ernesto Valverde, Barcelona coach (on Lionel Messi's physical state after Spain's 6-1 win over Argentina):
"It is true that after the game we played against Athletic Bilbao he had a minor pain, but nothing important. But at this stage I can't say much. We must wait until he is back to examine him and decide what we will do during the next few days. We hope it won't be anything major. He likes to play all games. He can't and he couldn't play these past two, but I can't say anything else until we have him back with us tomorrow."SOUNDBITE: (Spanish) Ernesto Valverde, Barcelona coach:
"We have everything at stake next month. That is the reality: the Spanish league, Champions League and the final of the Copa del Rey. We are waiting to see how the players come back from their national teams. But next week we have important games such as the Spanish league one against Sevilla. Three points won in that game and the league title will be closer to us because we are reaching the end of the tournament. And next Wednesday we play the first leg of our quarter-final in the Champions League (against Roma). We are very happy. We have reached this stage following a very intense season and now is when we reach the decisive stages."
