FIRST TRAINING SESSION ON SAUDI SOIL
Por Jaime
After touching down in Jeddah on Tuesday, Leo Messi's FC Barcelona side today trained as preparations continued ahead of their Spanish Super Cup semi-final tie. The Azulgranas' skipper heads into the tournament, which represents a first opportunity to secure silverware this term, brimming with energy and raring to continue to etch his name into the competition's history books.
The meeting with Atlético Madrid will determine the competition's second finalists following on from Real Madrid's 3-1 win over Valencia in the first of the two semi-finals.
