A tweet from Chelsea Dodgers shows the record signing going in strong on a tackle on Lionel Messi, leaving him in a heap on the ground.
Caicedo’s Ecuador side came up against Enzo Fernandez’s Argentina in a World Cup qualifier that involved both of the most expensive players in Chelsea’s history.
The latter came out on top in this battle, with Messi scoring late in the day in a manner so often seen.
