Lionel Messi is still in great doubt for the Super Cup final between Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao (Sunday, 22:00, Sport1).

The flea, who is suffering from an injury to his strong left leg, did not return to training during the weekend, but will still take off with the team to Sevilla, where the game will take place.

He will undergo a fitness test near the game to decide if he will participate in the game, with the SS claiming that "the decision will be made as close as possible to the time of the game."



Spain are convinced that Messi will do anything to play given his record: the Flea is not willing to miss finals games at almost any cost, no matter what framework it is.

The last time he lost a title game was somewhere in December 2007, when Barcelona faced Inter in the World Cup final for teams.

Bilbao are very afraid of Messi, naturally.

Just ten days ago, the Argentine star juggled in Barcelona's 2: 3 victory over the same Bilbao with a double, when he looked active and sharp again.

In general, Bilbao have suffered from Messi's foot injury too many times: he has scored no less than 26 goals in 38 meetings in the past.



Former player Shill Bilbao Carlos Gorfeggi warned before the game: "When Messi is on the pitch, it is clear that Barcelona are a completely different team, much more dangerous, much more quality, much more unpredictable. Something very surprising to overcome. "
