After the draw between Inter Miami and Charlotte (1-1), Lionel Messi was particularly angry with the referee of the match.

Everything is still not going so bad for Inter Miami, who were held to a draw by Charlotte (1-1) on Saturday evening in MLS, and who maintain a solid lead over the Columbus Crew at the top of the Eastern Conference . But Lionel Messi, at the final whistle, was particularly angry with the match referee.

Scorer with a nice strike in the 67th minute, while the visitors had opened the score 10 minutes earlier, Messi went to speak to Mr. Ramy Touchan. “You are very bad”the eight-time Ballon d’Or would have said to him, adding certain insults according to TycSports, some of which would have concerned the mother of this referee.

What is the reason for Messi’s anger? A priori, this is an action during added time, where the Argentinian was unbalanced at the entrance to the area, but the contact was too light to call a penalty. The Floridians demanded another penalty immediately because the Charlotte goalkeeper collided with Luis Suarez just after a strike from the Uruguayan, but the referee, quite rightly, did not flinch.
