Messi named in Barca squad for El Clasico

Barcelona captain Lionel Messi was named in the team's squad to face Real Madrid in Wednesday's Copa del Rey semi-final first leg after recovering from a light calf problem. Messi set off alarm bells after sustaining a knock to his calf during Saturday's 2-2 La Liga draw with Valencia, in which he scored twice, although he was able to finish the game after being treated.
