Leo Messi does a spot of gardening during Argentina vs Mexico

Who doesn’t love temporary turf?

Argentina played out a 2-2 draw with Mexico last night in Dallas, and for a split second Barcelona fans must have been in a bit of a panic about the condition of Leo Messi’s groin muscle.

Messi, in trying to make one of his customary quick changes of direction ‘planted’ his footed only for the turf to cut up like a shoddy piece of carpet.

Watch the video above to see the state of the pitch and Messi almost popping a groin.
