By the time Barça takes the field
tomorrow, it will have been 13 days since Lionel Messi last featured in a
game. With the exception of the winter holiday, this will be the
Argentine’s longest stretch without playing a competitive match in the
2012/13 season. Like Puyol, Messi is incredibly competitive, and this
extended rest – though necessary to recover from injury – has likely
infuriated him. While he may not be at 100% fitness tomorrow, after
nearly two weeks on the bench he will undoubtedly be raring to go.
Bayern Munich has an impressive defense, but even the likes of Dante and
Neuer may find themselves hard put to stop an impatient and eager
Messi.
