South American football governing body CONMEBOL hit back at Argentine superstar Lionel Messi on Saturday after he accused the body of corruption.
The five-time Ballon d’Or winner was involved in a tangle with Chile captain Gary Medel in which Messi appeared to do nothing wrong, but both players were given their marching orders by referee Mario Diaz de Vivar. “I think there’s no doubt that Brazil are going to be champions. The Copa is weighted towards Brazil,” he added.
And again Argentina were angered that Diaz de Vivar refused to consult with the video assistance to check the incident between Messi and Medel.Medel reacted furiously, chest bumping Messi a couple of times and seeming to push his head towards the Argentina captain, who didn’t react.Messi said his red card was “repercussions” for criticisms he expressed after the defeat to Brazil.
Hummh
They should bury their heads in shame. Messi gets a red card for being assaulted, n they expect him to be quiet? Shame on them all especially their corrupt agent on the pitch who had d option of verifying with VAR, but refused, so wat is CONMEBOL saying na? Institution my foot!
Fire to fire
Messi is now corruption
He's a legend, but I have never seen Ronaldo whine about the unfairness in football even though football has been more unfair to him.
