<p>Barcelona routed Villarreal 5-1 on Sunday night to pick up their sixth straight victory in the competition, but saw captain Ter Stegen leave the match on a stretcher just before half-time after his right knee buckled when he fell awkwardly after going up for a ball crossed into the area.</p>
<p>Barcelona president Joan Laporta said the injury appeared to be a torn ligament but more tests would be conducted. Local media reports said Ter Stegen went from the stadium to the hospital in an ambulance, and left in a wheelchair. &ldquo;This injury makes us sad. The injury will be huge but we have to wait for more information,&rdquo; Barcelona coach Hansi Flick said.&nbsp;</p>
