There will be no duel between

Cristiano Ronaldo

and

Leo Messi

this Wednesday in

Turin

.

The Portuguese 'crack'

Juventus

has tested positive for COVID-19 again and, therefore, will miss the match that

Vecchia Signora

disputes against

Ronald Koeman's

Barça

, corresponding to the second day of the Champions League.

The '

Gazzetta dello Sport

' made the hare jump this afternoon.

Very shortly after eight thirty, he assured that the last tests to which the Portuguese player has undergone have returned positive.

The third in recent weeks.

A piece of news that, of course, fell like a whole jug of cold water on

Andrea Pirlo

who trusted almost until the last moment in being able to count on him to face Barça at the Juventus Stadium.

The Juventus coach already took for granted in the pre-match press conference that, of course, if he could be on the pitch, Cristiano Ronaldo would not have been able to play the 90 minutes.

But even so, he hoped to be able to have him on the pitch for a while, knowing the special motivation for the Portuguese to measure himself against

Leo Messi

on the pitch.

The player's third positive, however, would have ruined his hopes.

Cristiano Ronaldo has not been able to play for a couple of weeks.

He tested positive for Covid-19 while he was concentrating with the

Portugal team

, on October 13, and, despite the fact that his condition is apparently asymptomatic, and that he has even been training alone, for now, he has lost already four games.

In the Italian league it was low in the duels against

Crotone

, at home, and against

Hellas Verona

, at home, which ended in both cases with a final result of 1-1.

In the Champions League, meanwhile, he could not play the first match of Vecchia Signora in this tournament, against Dinamo Kiev in Ukraine, which ended with a 2-0 away win thanks to two goals from

Álvaro Morata

, and he will not be able to play either. the grass against Barça.

For now, you have to arm yourself with patience.

And wait for your tests, finally, to give negative.
