They accuse Lionel Messi of cheating with his great free kick goal (VIDEO)
Despite shining, Messi is being criticized for this reason.
Lionel Messi has not stopped scoring goals since his arrival at Inter Miami. The Florida state team was the worst in all of soccer in the United States, but since the arrival of the 10th they have not stopped winning their matches. The Leagues Cup is, for now, the only competition that Messi played with Inter Miami, since the new competition interrupts the normal development of Major League Soccer.
The world champion accumulates 7 goals in just 4 games. His goal average and his performance is enormous, taking advantage of the great difference he has over his opponents. In North America he finds a much lower demand than he had in Europe or the one he has with the Argentine National Team. However, he seems to be just as motivated and competitive as ever.
The last game he played was the most difficult for his team. With a defense that showed some weakness, Inter Miami conceded four goals against Dallas FC, but appealed to the talent of its number 10 and captain to take the match to the definition from the penalty spot. With 2 goals and direct participation in the other 2, Leo Messi took 'Las Garzas' to the quarterfinals.
Criticism of the Mexican press to Messi
Messi made use of his experience and intelligence to tie the game. With 5 minutes remaining and Inter Miami trailing by one goal, Messi had an almost ideal free kick for his left foot. But he himself was in charge of turning it into an ideal, running the ball towards the center, so that the shot is not so open. For this 'invigorated', the man from Rosario received criticism from the Mexican media, who described Messi's action as “cheaty”.
