This rather inconspicuous situation caught the attention of the entire football world. At PSG, Lionel Messi was called to lie down on the ground behind a wall during an opponent’s direct kick. The football public condemns this decision and calls it a great disrespect to Messi.
It was a situation at the end of the match. Riyad Mahrez stood the ball up behind the whitewash to try to adjust the score to 1: 2 from a direct kick. Lionel Messi then lay down behind the PSG wall to help prevent it. However, many experts didn’t like that.
“We can’t believe it. After all, he is one of the best players of all time, if not the best ever,” said expert Owen Hargreaves on BT Sport.
He was soon backed up by Rio Ferdinand. “The minute Mauricio Pochettino asked Messi to do that in training, someone should have come up and said: No, you don’t do that to Leo. It’s disrespectful, I couldn’t allow him to lie down like that. Messi can’t get his jersey dirty like that,” the former England stopper added.
In the end, Messi had a very good game, thanks to his 74th minute goal. And it was a very good goal. It was also the reason why PSG beat Manchester City 2:0.
