Lucho not sure if Lionel Messi or Neymar will play in final

Luis Enrique says he is not sure if Lionel Messi or Neymar will be fit for the Club World Cup final against River Plate on Sunday.

The Brazilian missed the 3-0 win over Guangzhou on Thursday night with a groin problem, while the Argentine is suffering abdominal pain. 

“We don’t know if we’ll be able to count on Messi or Neymar, they don’t know if they’ll be ready and neither do we, so we’ll have to see,” he said after Barcelona saw off their Chinese opponents.

Lucho also hailed his team, particularly highlighting Andres Iniesta and Luis Suarez.

“The team gave a very serious display, making almost no errors and that’s important in games like these, when you know very little about your opponents. Overall we played a very complete game," he explained.

“Iniesta dominated the play and can dribble better than anyone, and Suarez is a deadly assassin, capable of scoring any chance he gets in the area, while he also presses and motives the rest of the team. He’s indispensable.”
