Is Messi banned in the national team? Half a year?
In the America's Cup, Messi got a red card and he was suspended for a game and was fined $1,500. The suspension will be executed in the first round of the World Cup in March next year. After the game, Messi publicly criticized the South American Football Association is very corrupt. According to ESPN reporter Diego Monroy, Messi will be suspended for six months in the national team because of these words. This ticket will be officially issued by the South American Football Association next week.
Messi will not be able to represent Argentina in the next six months. In these six months, Argentina has only six warm-up matches to play, with Chile, Mexico, Germany, Basque United, Saudi Arabia and Brazil. In other words, Messi seems to be heavily penalized, but in fact the impact is small.
Messi will get more rest time. As a Barcelona fan, I am very grateful to the South American Football Association for the ban.
