Lionel Messi trains on his own as swelling in his right foot continues
Lionel Messi confirmed on Monday that he still has a pain in his right foot, forcing him to train on his own while in the United States with Argentina.
However, it appears to be good news that he is able to train at all, easing fears of a prolonged spell out.
He may not be ready to play against Ecuador, though.
After beating El Salvador at the weekend, Argentina will take on their Sout Americam rivals on Tuesday at DC United' stadium in New Jersey.
It seems strange that Messi has not been allowed to return to Barcelona, considering the injury.
The Argentine media have even been asking the same question, although there are a few reasons why he may have stayed with his national team.
