In this video we will see Leo Messi (Barcelona Forward) suffers a knock from the Benfica goalkeeper. Pique (Barcelona Defender) gives Messi a wonderfull pass which leads him to a one-on-one situation wiht the goalkeeper. After a peace of skill from Messi the goalkeeper decides to go for his knee causing stress on the left knee. 

The New York Times stated:

"The club later confirmed the injury was only bruising to the left knee, but added that the forward "is still awaiting more tests to determine the extent of the injury".

Fans turned up hoping to see Messi match or better Gerd Muller's record of 85 goals in a calendar year, but in the end the night finished on a sour note with the Argentine still a goal behind.

"It doesn't appear too serious as it is a knock to his knee but he will have to have tests now to find out exactly what the situation is," said Barcelona coach Tito Vilanova.

"He is calm although a little worried as you would expect for a player with an injury who is waiting to know how serious it is.

"I played him for the last 30 minutes to give him a run out and he didn't play just to break the record as if that had been the case then he would have started."
