Barcelona loose Iniesta for two weeks

Andres Iniesta has been sidelined for two weeks after suffering a hamstring injury in training for Barcelona this week, and will miss the first leg of the Champions League encounter with Olympique Lyonnais.

After missing two months through injury after picking up a knock against Basel in November, Iniesta had just forced his way back into Pep Guardiola’s starting line-up.

Now he will have to earn his place back again when he returns in two weeks time after doctors advised him that he will have to rest in order to shake off the latest problem.
