Things got heated between Messi and Rodrygo

The pre-match between Brazil and Argentina was marked by a clash between the Argentine star and the young Brazilian player.

It didn’t just heat up in the stands on Tuesday evening during the clash between Brazil and Argentina. While violent clashes occurred between supporters in the aisles of the Maracana, prompting the Albiceleste players to leave the field to return to the locker rooms, an altercation also pitted Rodrygo against several Argentine players when the latter returned to the pitch.

“Band of cowards”, launched the young Brazilian striker, provoking the anger of Rodrigo de Paul and Lionel Messi. “We are world champions, why should we be cowards? Watch what you say”then replied the eight-time world champion, not hesitating to take the Madrilenian by the neck.
