Video: Messi cries for Maradona during Barcelona training

Argentine star Lionel Messi shed tears during the minutes of silence that he stood with his fellow Barcelona players and the technical staff led by the Dutch coach Ronald Koeman, mourning the late legend Diego Maradona, who died Wednesday at the age of 60 after a cardiac arrest.

Barcelona posted a video of mourning on its Twitter account for the world football legend who had previously played with Barcelona before moving to Napoli, Italy, and the video showed Messi was affected by the departure of his fellow countryman and former coach in the tango team in 2010.
