Messi was reportedly unhappy with the performance of the referee, and waited in the tunnel to speak to him.
According to Spanish radio station El Partidazo De La Cope, Arteta took issue with Messi approaching the referee and said:
"Go on, fool, get out of here and go to your dressing room."Messi was alleged to have replied:
"Hey idiot, come here and say it to my face!"https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/790158078641639426?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw Sergio Aguero reportedly diffused the situation, and calmed down his Argentina teammate. According to the City striker:
"(It was) nothing serious. I heard something but I don’t know what happened. I thought Messi said something to me but he didn’t, and then we talked about other stuff."While Messi reportedly wanted to have words with Arteta, he evidently wasn't in the mood to speak with his friend Aguero. "We haven’t talked. Whenever you lose you’re not very happy," the City striker said.
"I know him well enough to know when he’s bad, when he's good. Leo wasn't in the mood to talk and I respect that."Colm O'Rourke and Pauric Mahony join Colm Parkinson on a packed GAA Hour that includes Dick Clerkin appreciation and Sean Cavanagh envy. Subscribe here on iTunes.
