UEFA to hear Barcelona protests

UEFA's Control and Disciplinary Body will deal on Saturday with two protests lodged by FC Barcelona, in relation to the yellow card given to forward Lionel Messi and the expulsion of coach Josep Guardiola during last night's UEFA Champions League quarter-final first leg against FC Bayern München.

Caution
Messi was cautioned in the 17th minute of the match at Camp Nou, which Barcelona won 4-0, and Guardiola was sent to the stands shortly afterwards.
