Messi has been ruled out of the friendly on Tuesday and the Moroccan Football Federation are disapppointed they won't get to test themselves as the best

The whole world wants to see Lionel Messi in action and his return to international football allows even more spectators to catch a glimpse of the world's best player.

In his first match back, Argentina fell to a 3-1 defeat against Venezeula. Morocco was set to be his next destination but the little wizard won't appear in the friendly after picking up an injury.

Medical report and a return to Barcelona

Messi complained about feeling discomfort in his pubis and was released from Argentina's training camp in order to resume his recovery in Barcelona.

However that has upset the Moroccan Football Federation and they've asked for an explanation as to why Argentina's best player won't be out on the pitch against them. This is, in part, due to the fact Argentina promised to play their best available team in the fixture.

Morocco are preparing themselves for the African Cup of Nations which takes place in Egypt on the 21st June.
