One of the most famous Argentine basketball players Manu Ginobili urged his compatriots to stop cursing Lionel Messi. M. Ginobili is convinced that eventually L. Messi will get tired of constant criticism and he will simply refuse to play for the Argentine national team.
With L. Messi, the Argentine national team reached the finals of the last two tournaments - the 2014 World Cup and the "Copa America" of that year. In Rio de Janeiro, last year the Argentines lost to the Germans in the final after extra time with a score of 0:1, and in the next tournament they lost to Chile in a penalty shootout.
Angry Argentines and even the country's commentators began to question whether L. Messi is really so important to the team. Many remember that he plays much better in "Barcelona" than in the national team.
Later, rumors emerged that L. Messi suggested that on September 8th he could skip the friendly matches with the Argentine team.
"Messi is a monster. It's just strange when you criticize the diamond of Argentine sports crown. One day he will simply get tired and everyone will be left crying in the corner, because he will send them all to hell" - said M. Ginobili.
