Lionel Messi showed his frustration with coach Mauricio Pochettino

Well they say that an image is worth a thousand words, and the one that Lionel Messi left in PSG's harrowing triumph against Lyon in the Parc des Princes for Ligue 1, is going to give a lot to talk about. The Argentine was replaced by Mauricio Pochettino in the 75th minute, with the duel still tied 1 to 1, and the gestures of the Rosario have caused a stir. Leo did not like the change and Pochettino came to the front to explain and try to put cold cloths on the situation.

“We made the decision to remove Leo Messi due to a possible injury in the future. Important parties are approaching and it must be protected. They are decisions we make for the team. Everyone knows that we have great players, we have to make decisions. Sometimes it can be attractive, other times a little less ”, said the Argentine at the end of the match.

When Lionel Messi crossed paths with Pochettino, he buried his head in the ground and covered his face. The technician approached the striker and stretched out his hand, but that gesture was not reciprocal. In fact, the Rosario looked unfriendly to the former Tottenham coach.

During his time on the pitch, Messi enjoyed opportunities to score his first goal with the PSG jersey. What's more, the ‘30 ′ crashed a shot into the Lyon post. 

Lionel Messi: How were his first games at PSG?

Lionel Messi's first games at Paris Saint Germain did not turn out what he expected. In his debut, he played a few minutes in the victory against Reims, but the rival made him feel the vigor of what awaits him in Ligue 1.

On the other hand, the second against Brugge, and when everyone considered him a favorite to stay with the Champions League game and a surprising draw left football scholars speechless. The third, in his debut at Parc des Princes, was replaced by the coach when the game was still even, in what ended up being a victory against Lyon.

Lionel Messi: Why didn't he play at Metz - PSG today?

Lionel Messi was not present in Paris Saint-Germain against FC Metz, for the seventh date of the French Ligue 1, because of a contusion in the left knee, which in turn would have motivated the exit -visibly annoying- in the second half 2-1 against Olympique de Lyon last Sunday.

Lionel Messi: One more in the team

The truth is that Lionel Messi will have to understand that he is no longer master and lord as was the case in Barcelona. It is that in the Spanish team he was literally a king, and to understand why in France he still did not write his history, and because he is surrounded by great names who are at his height.
