Iniesta suffers hamstring injury

Andres Iniesta has been diagnosed with a hamstring injury after being forced off in the second half of Barcelona's 2-1 win over Bayer Leverkusen.

The Spain international signalled to the bench that he would be unable to continue after he went to ground on the 60-minute mark, with Jordi Alba his replacement.

Though able to walk unaided from the pitch, Iniesta was seen punching a dugout chair in frustration as he took his seat, and the club have since confirmed the problem.

"His return to training will depend on his progress."

Late goals from Sergi Roberto and Luis Suarez saw Barca come from 1-0 down to secure their first win in Group E.
