BARCELONA, May 2 (Reuters) - Barcelona and France defender Eric Abidal, who had surgery on a liver tumour in March, was given the all-clear on Monday and included in the squad for Tuesday's Champions League match against Real Madrid.
The 31-year-old's return for the semi-final second leg at the Nou Camp, where Barca will defend a 2-0 lead, is good news for Barca coach Pep Guardiola, who has lost defenders Adriano, Maxwell and Gabriel Milito to injury.
Midfielder Andres Iniesta, who missed last week's first leg in Madrid with a calf strain, was also declared fit, Barca said on their website (www.fcbarcelona.cat).
