The Barcelona star expressed his frustration on social media the day after a bitter defeat to his club's biggest rivals
Lionel Messi took to Instagram to announce his frustration on Monday, pronouncing the day "f*cked up".
The Barcelona star posted the day after his side fell 3-1 to Real Madrid at home in the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup.
"F*cked up day but you have to pick yourself up and carry on," the 30-year-old wrote. "This has just started."
Perhaps the Argentine will have been boosted by the club's announcement Monday of the signing of Paulinho from Guangzhou Evergrande.
