Football: Iniesta cleared to face PSG


(MENAFN- The Peninsula) Barcelona midfielder Andres Iniesta has been given the all clear to face French champions Paris Saint-Germain in the second-leg of their Champions League quarter-final on Tuesday.

The Spanish international suffered heavy bruising on his back during Barca's 3-1 first-leg win in Paris last week and missed the Catalans 2-0 victory over Valencia on Saturday as a result.

"Andres Iniesta has received the medical all clear," Barcelona said in a statement on Monday.

"The Barca number eight is available to Luis Enrique now that he has recovered from the heavy bruising on the sacroiliac joint he suffered away at PSG."
