LIONEL MESSI NEWS:

As the Portugal captain told Spanish radio show El Larguero, as quoted by ESPN, "Are you joking? I don't have his number,"

"I congratulate him when people are there, he was not there today. So it is difficult to congratulate someone when you are not there.

 

"When he won other Ballon d'Or awards, I congratulated him. But he was not there today. Not just him, but all the Barca players.

 

"I understand they have a big game on Wednesday, but I obviously would have liked them to be there.

 

"I always do what the club say I should do. For example, I was at the (Ballon d'Or) awards every year. And if I am nominated in the years to come, I will be there too."
