Lionel Messi was substituted during Paris Saint-Germain's win over Juventus on Tuesday night, marking the first time he has been taken off in the Champions League in nearly eight years.
The Argentine, 35, had completed every match he's started in Europe's premier competition since Barcelona's 3-1 victory Ajax on October 21, 2104. Messi, of course, was playing for Barcelona in that game - assisting their opening goal and scoring their second.
Messi wasn't directly involved in a goal during PSG's 2-1 win at the Parc des Princes, yet he didn't need to be with Kylian Mbappe bagging a first-half brace. Weston McKennie halved the deficit after the break before Messi came off in the 84th minute.
