Lionel Messi was at the center of the controversy because he almost came to blows with several Uruguayan players, after the defeat they suffered at home, within the framework of CONMEBOL Qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. Messi, at the end of the match , spoke openly and asked for more respect from the young to the experienced.
"Against Uruguay it is always like this. I prefer not to say what I think, but these young people have to learn from the elders because this Clásico was always intense but with respect," were the words of Lionel Messi at a press conference and which generated a lot of debate, since they consider that Ugarte got out of hand.
"It was difficult for us to play, they are intense, fast and physical. We couldn't find a way to have the ball and have long possessions." We had to lose, it's a test. We have to get up and have a good game in Brazil. The matches against Brazil are classics, we have to get up and play at Maracaná, it is not easy,” added Lionel Messi.
After Lionel Messi's words, they remembered from Colombia's Gol Garra account, the time that the number 10 of the Argentina National Team was the one who disrespected the people of the Netherlands, because he went to dedicate the goal to the bench, where Van Gaal was. This has undoubtedly generated many comments on social networks.
