There is no longer any doubt: Messi finding success with Argentina is becoming an even taller order, writes Alfredo Relaño.

The other day at a bullfight, Miguel Ángel Gil was adamant that Griezmann had signed for Barça months ago.

Watching Barça’s spectacular fall at Anfield on Tuesday, I remembered the other times they have crumpled in the Champions League: the 4-0 defeat to PSG, the 3-0 defeats in both Turin and Rome.

If any of you happen to live in Madrid or close to the capital and have some spare time this evening, then you have a golden opportunity to attend the Wanda Metropolitano and watch Lionel Messi in action.

Alfredo Relaño previews a weekend crowned by Sunday's Copa Liberadores final between River Plate and Boca Juniors which will be played here in Madrid.

After 13 matches, Sevilla sit top of LaLiga. Thirteen games make up a third of the season, we would say that's enough time for teams to have shown each other their hands.

It’s true that we have had two continental finals here between teams from Madrid, but it comes nowhere close, believe me
