Messi Attacks Referees

Argentina international Lionel Messi was both shocked and disappointed by the refereeing during the semi-final match between Argentina and Brazil. Dani Alves’ teammates won the game (2-0).

Lionel Messi couldn’t find his way to goals against Brazil. The five-time Golden Ball missed his chance to win a title with Argentina. At the final whistle, Messi appeared upset against the Ecuadorian referee Roddy Zambrano who, according to him, favored the Seleçao.

” We are angry because we had a great game, but the referee was not fair “, lamented Messi. ” On the second Brazilian goal, he does not whistle the penalty that there is before. There is also the push on Otamendi. They didn’t stop whistling bullshit during this Copa América and this time they never used VAR. It’s incredible. Two penalties were not whistled. It was like that the whole game. At the slightest contact, it was fault for them. We ended up getting out of the match by dint of seeing that all the bullshit was going their way. »

The Barça player does not stop there and even appeals to the South American football federation (Conmebol). ” It’s not an excuse, but it must be analyzed and I hope that Conmebol will do something with this type of arbitration because we gave everything. But I don’t think it will happen, because Brazil controls everything. »
