Lionel Messi was sent off for the first time in his career in Barcelona in the closing stages of extra time when he lost 3-2 to Athletic Bilbao in the Spanish Super Cup on Sunday.
Messi, who returned to the starting line-up after an injury-related semi-final win over Real Sociedad, was sacked after a last-minute goal from Asier Villalibre.
The Argentine was more positively involved when Barca took the lead five minutes before the break.
