AFP, MADRID: Barcelona full-back Jordi Alba will miss Tuesday's European Super Cup against Sevilla with a hamstring injury, the Spanish champions said Thursday.
Alba will be sidelined for around two weeks but
should be available for the opening weekend of the La Liga season on August 21 and 22.
The European Super Cup, between the Champions League winners and Europa League victors, takes place in Tblisi on Tuesday.
Alba pulled up lame in the second half and was replaced by Alen Halilovic.
