Barcelona and Argentina national team captain Lionel Messi has made another donation towards the fight of Covid-19 pandemic. In March, the six-time Ballon d'Or winner donated 1,000,000 euros for the cause. He recently donated 500,000 euros to an Argentine hospital, Hospital Garrahan, so they could buy supplies and life-saving medical equipment. The hospital made a video thanking him and uploaded it on Twitter. Argentina has so far had 6,278 confirmed coronavirus cases, 1,824 recoveries and 314 deaths. Messi and his mates have resumed training ahead of a potential La Liga return in June. All the players have tested negative. 11 fixtures remain to complete the current La Liga season. Barcelona lead the table with two points ahead of second-placed Real Madrid.
