Atletico Madrid boss Aguirre: Tonight not about Messi v Aguero

Atletico Madrid coach Javier Aguirre insists tonight's clash with Barcelona isn't a personal duel between his Sergio Aguero and Lionel Messi.

"They are two fantastic players, but both teams have ten more teammates. It is not an individual duel," said Aguirre.

"Messi, without Barcelona, or Kun, without Atletico, would be important players, but there are ten more who make them the players they are. It is a unit against a unit. Hopefully the unit of El Kun beats the unit of Messi."
