Argentine star Lionel Messi revealed the scenes of his clash with Robert Lewandowski, Poland’s captain, during the two teams’ match in the last World Cup.
Liu pointed out, “What Lewandowski said after winning the Best Award bothered me, because when I won the Ballon d’Or in 2021, I expressed my feelings quite frankly.”
The Tango captain confirmed: “Yes, I ignored Lewandowski during the match, and I was very angry, because he spoke in an unacceptable way, and in fact I deliberately dodged him on the field.”
The former Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain star continued, “After that, we met and talked and agreed that it was a misunderstanding. Lewandowski was also upset, because what he said was spread through the media in an inaccurate way.”
“Lewandowski went to Barcelona, and we talked about many things about the club, the city, everything,” Messi added.
The Argentine captain explained, “What I did in the Netherlands match is similar to my position with Lewandowski, because it bothers me what some people say outside the field and their lack of respect for the opponent.”
