Messi out for 'seven or eight weeks'published at 19:20
So Barcelona have won and Madrid have dropped points. But aside from the on-field action, there has been some other big news from La Liga....
Barcelona talisman Lionel Messi will be out for seven to eight weeks after tearing a ligament in his left knee during a 2-1 win over Las Palmas.
The bad news? He will miss a host of important La Liga and Champions League matches. The good news? His first match back could be El Clasico against Real Madrid.
