Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Barcelona playmaker Andres Iniesta has a bruised thigh and will miss Wednesday's Champions League Group H match at AC Milan.
Iniesta sustained the injury in Saturday's 4-0 La Liga win against Real Zaragoza and is being rested as a precaution, Barcelona said on their website (http://www.fcbarcelona.com).
He joins suspended full back Daniel Alves and fellow casualties Adriano Correia and Ibrahim Afellay on the sidelines.
There was better news for coach Pep Guardiola concerning forward Pedro, who has recovered from an ankle problem and is in the squad for the trip to Italy, Barcelona added.
Group leaders Barcelona and second-placed AC Milan qualified for the knockout round with two games to spare and a win for the Spanish club at the San Siro will secure them top spot and a potentially easier passage in the last 16.
Barcelona have 10 points from four matches and Milan eight.
