Barcelona captain Lionel Messi suffered a brutal broken-arm against Sevilla in Spanish league fixture on Sunday which will keep him out of action for three-weeks. The Argentine superstar had an awkward fall and twisted his arm as he fell on the floor. It was evidently obvious that the injury was a serious one because Messi is not the kind of person to play-act. The 31-year-old was in agony as he was taken out of the stadium to a hospital for tests, which revealed that Messi has a fracture on his right arm and that it would take 3-weeks to heal. As soon as FC Barcelona’s Twitter account announced the news, fans and rivals alike shared messages of support and prayed for the little magician’s quick recovery.
