He was a PSG player, criticized Messi, and now calls him fake over the Rodrygo incident

Lionel Messi wants to get out of all kinds of controversies after what he experienced with Rodrygo in Brazil's match at the Maracanã. Despite Argentina's victory, things are still negative around that match. For many, the match should have been canceled with the types of disturbances that took place inside the stadium where the Brazilian police were involved.

For many, it is common for the police of that country to constantly continue to lash out at Argentines. It should be noted that although it is not yet really known why the riots started, it is known that the players, including Messi simply refused to play momentarily in such conditions. For this reason, it was a possibility that the match would be cancelled.

Nevertheless, in the end this did not happen and the match ended up being played normally. Faced with this, a controversial situation was experienced between Lionel Messi and Rodrygo. The Argentine, along with Rodrigo de Paul, went to intimidate the 22-year-old Brazilian player, who responded with class because he did not stop the attacks of a player like Messi despite his status as a footballer.

This has ended up arousing a lot of criticism and has caused many fans of the Argentine to attack Rodrygo directly. The player even posted all the racist attacks he had received. With that said, Messi's actions have caused outrage because for some he is the cause.
