(VIDEO) Messi generates madness in China, over 13 million USD just to see him

Lionel Messi has generated impressive expectations in China, because, in the second most populated country in the world, the madness for Messi is real. Today, a crowd of 40 thousand people have filled up just to see him train! Furthermore, the tickets have not been free, since they have been sold separately.

According to Diario Marca, the tickets to enter the stadium were around 300 dollars, which if we multiply by the 40 thousand seats, we would be talking about around 13 million dollars being raised to see Lionel Messi!

Will Messi play? There was controversy against Al Nassr... why did he play the final 10 minutes if he was having physical discomfort? Now, Diario Marca has revealed it, as it is a clause in the contract, the same one that he will have against Hong Kong. This is what the Spanish newspaper reports:

"A Hong Kong government source told the South China Morning Post that there are 'contractual conditions that specify that he will participate barring illness or injury.'

Tata Martino revealed whether Messi will play or not:

"We had two very intense games (in Saudi Arabia this week), two more we have played in El Salvador and Dallas. We have to observe the physical situation of each of our players, but we expect that Leo will play as long as possible."
