Lionel Messi Barcelona v Mallorca La Liga — More than three months had passed since Messi's last appearance on a football field. The six-time Ballon d'Or winner will be 33 in little over a week, but while he approaches veteran status, his post-lockdown look is more of a reminder of the young Messi. Image Credit: AFP

Barcelona's Lionel Messi scored in the win over Mallorca — uis Suarez, who benefited from the long league stoppage to recover from right knee surgery, was with the rest of Barcelona's reserve players, wearing face masks and sitting in the stands with several empty seats separating them. The Uruguay striker went on as one of five allowed substitutes. Suarez laid off for Messi to speed around two defenders and fire in his right-footed shot into the top corner to complete the commanding victory. Image Credit: AFP
