Barcelona superstar, Lionel Messi, has revealed he was unable to watch most of this year’s Champions League final because he was in Argentina.

Messi and his team-mates were knocked out in the quarter-finals of the competition by Roma, meaning their last game of the season was on May 20, six days before the match in Kiev, Ukraine.

By that time, the five-time Ballon d’Or winner had already linked up with the Argentina national team, ahead of the 2018 World Cup.

Argentina is six hours behind Ukraine, meaning it was 13.45 when the final was on for Messi.

When asked if he watched the final, Messi told Sport: “Just bits, to be honest. Not because I didn’t want to but because we were in Argentina and the time isn’t the same.

“I saw the highlights and everything that happened.”

Bitter jealous loser

Just tell us u don't want commit suicide by watching the king CR7 lifting the fifth trophy. By the way isn't 13:45 mid day?

After all said and dusted. This is why. A picture is worth a thousand words

Forget abt jealousy or rivalry... It's is normal for everybody. These two players Messi and Ronaldo are two hell of a footballer. I really hate comparing the two of them cos they are both best in their own way. We Re really lucky to have these very skilled players during our generation. They have both dominated football for 10yrs and still counting... These two guys are the greatest...

Messi dey lie!! If he wants to watch the final, nothing could have stopped him!
