BARCELONA, Spain -- Barcelona lost Lionel Messi to injury and a chance to beat a title rival on Wednesday, when it was held to a 1-1 draw by Atletico Madrid in the Spanish league.Messi gingerly walked off the Camp Nou pitch in the 58th minute, just moments before Atletico substitutes Angel Correa and Fernando Torres went on and linked up to equalize.The defending champions said Messi will be sidelined for three weeks with a groin strain.With Leo Messi out, football loses, we all lose, Barcelona coach Luis Enrique said. We now have to look for different solutions. Of course we are stronger with Messi, but we are still strong enough.The night couldnt have started better for Barcelona, after seeing Real Madrids hopes of breaking its Spanish league record for consecutive wins dashed by a 1-1 draw with Villarreal.Barcelona was in control after Ivan Rakitic broke through Atleticos staunch defense in the 41st with a header from Andres Iniestas cross.But the match quickly changed course when Messi came up lame following a sprint to fight for a ball with Diego Godin.The Argentina star grimaced as he touched his right thigh. After walking gingerly for a few minutes, he sat on the turf, pulled out his shin guards and unlaced his boots.Arda Turan hastily warmed up and rushed on to replace him.Sensing an opportunity to transform the game, Atletico coach Diego Simeone sent on Torres and Correa.The move immediately paid off when they caught Barcelona napping after a foul. Torres glancing touch of a pass left Correa clear to rifle a low shot off the post and into the net in the 61st.Simeone said that the goal coming on the heels of Messis exit was coincidence, pure coincidence.The key to the match was the change we made at the start of the second half, Simeone said. We defended very well throughout, but in the second half we were able to be protagonists as well.Neymar tried to lead Barcelona in Messis absence, while Godin drew a save from goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen in the final minutes.League leader Real Madrid leads Sevilla by two points. Barcelona is three behind, followed by Atletico four points back.---REAL MADRID 1, VILLARREAL 1Real Madrid was aiming to break Barcelonas league record of 16 straight wins set in 2010-11. Adding to its strong finish to last season, Madrid had won the first four rounds and tied Barcelonas milestone by beating Espanyol on Sunday.Sergio Ramos featured in both goals at Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.The Madrid defender helped Villarreal go in front in the first-half stoppage time when he blocked Manuel Trigueros shot with his arm, setting up Bruno Soriano to score the penalty.Ramos made amends three minutes after the restart when he leapt higher than two defenders to head Madrid level.Neither Cristiano Ronaldo nor Gareth Bale looked at their sharpest after both Madrid forwards were rested against Espanyol.Bale was substituted with 20 minutes left, and Ronaldo wasted a chance to secure a late win when he shot into the arms of goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo.Madrid lost left back Marcelo to an undisclosed injury in the first half when he walked off the pitch.I am happy with my players, coach Zinedine Zidane said. Im not going to talk about records. We are going to rest and think about the next match.---CELTA VIGO 2, SPORTING GIJON 1Iago Aspas penalty three minutes from time secured Celta Vigo its first win of the season as it edged Sporting Gijon.Hugo Mallo put Celta ahead in the 66th before Duje Cop equalized with a spot kick of his own.---OTHER ACTIONReal Sociedad striker William Jose scored twice against his former team to lead a 4-1 win over Las Palmas.Athletic Bilbao also kept Granada winless with a 2-1 victory from goals by Raul Garcia and Aymeric Laporte.

Nike Air Max Baratas . -- Three close looks at the bucket, three misses. The Milwaukee Bucks have traded guard Michael Carter-Williams to the Chicago Bulls for swingman Tony Snell.The teams both announced the trade Monday, two days after reportedly agreeing to the deal.Were excited to add Michael to our roster, Bulls general manager Gar Forman said in a statement. He is a two-way player who adds versatility and depth to our backcourt rotation.A source close to Carter-Williams told ESPNs Jeff Goodman that the guard was informed he was being traded to Chicago late Saturday night.Sources said the Bucks, who have been openly looking for more shooting and defense on the perimeter in the wake of a long-term injury suffered by starter Khris Middleton just days before training camp, targeted Snell to give them some much-needed help on the wing.It marks the second trade Milwaukee has swung since losing Middleton, following the Bucks acquisition of Michael Beasley from the Houston Rockets?in September.?The Bucks and Bulls met Saturday night in Chicago in a preseason game, but neither Carter-Williams nor Snell played.ESPN reported earlier this month that the Bucks had unsuccessfully offered Carter-Williams -- who won NBA Rookie of the Year honors in?Philadelphia?in 2013-14 -- to Sacramento in a proposed deal for?Kings?guard Ben McLemore.But the Bucks, sources say, are intrigued by Snells potential -- both as a fill-in for Middlleton and as a potential backup -- after he shot 35 percent from long distance last season.dddddddddddd Should the deal be consummated, Milwaukee is expected to open contract extension talks with Snell, sources told ESPNs Brian Windhorst.?For the Bulls, adding Carter-Williams would provide them with a proven second point guard alongside Rajon Rondo, who signed a two-year deal in the offseason in which only $3 million of his $13.4 million salary in 2017-18 is guaranteed.The Bucks surrendered?Brandon Knight?in a three-team trade with Philadelphia and?Phoenix?to acquire Carter-Williams in February 2015, but the move never panned out as Milwaukee had hoped, with Carter-Williams shooting struggles and the emergence of star Giannis Antetokounmpo landing him on the bench.Both Carter-Williams and Snell are 2013 first-round picks eligible for extensions ahead of the Oct. 31 deadline, although neither seemed likely to land an extension before these trade talks.Carter-Williams lost his starting spot in Milwaukee this past winter before undergoing hip surgery. Snell had likewise fallen out of favor in Chicago and would have struggled for playing time on the wing with the Bulls behind Dwyane Wade, Jimmy Butler?and?Doug McDermott. ' ' '
