Lionel Messi couldn't handle it. Barcelona's team leader got angry with the media and stated that he will not reconcile with their lies. The footballer was upset by the comments of Spanish journalists after Tuesday's "Primera" championship match, writes espnfc.com.
Barcelona's team defeated Real Sociedad's team 4:1, but before the final whistle, the media caught on to the fact that the Catalan coach Gerardo Martino substituted the leader in the 81st minute. L. Messi scored a goal and made an assist during this match, but G. Martino insisted that he had to make the change.
"He never wants to be substituted, but my goal is to take care of him. We will need him at the end of the season," said G. Martino.
Immediately after the Argentine was substituted, the Spanish media announced that the 26-year-old footballer angrily waved his hand in response to G. Martino's decision. However, L. Messi stated on the social network "Facebook" that the journalists are lying.
"I didn't make any gesture when I was substituted. Nobody likes being substituted, but players have to accept it if it's a decision for the good of the team," wrote L. Messi. "I definitely won't accept certain media's lies about what happened."
