Lionel Messi sent a direct hook to Canelo: “I don’t need to apologize because I didn’t disrespect the people of Mexico, their t-shirt or anyone else.”

Lionel Messi’s Argentina beat Poland 2-0 and advanced to the round of 16 after the game. The PSG star mentioned the controversy created by Canelo and stated emphatically that he doesn’t need to apologize to anyone. and it was never his intention to disrespect anyone.

When asked about the threat from Canelo Alvarez, Messi naturally and calmly began by saying that he saw the Mexican boxer come out to apologize for this fact. “It was a misunderstanding, anyone who knows me knows that I never respect anyone by leaving the shirt there, it’s part of the locker room. Nothing more to say“Said the Argentine star.

Likewise, he forcefully continued his answer:I don’t even have to apologize because I didn’t disrespect the Mexicans, their shirts or anyone else. But everything is left there, nothing happensAdded Messi, who undoubtedly downplayed the words of the sublime “Canelo” Alvarez.

Recall that Canelo apologized earlier. and he realized that his threats were not very coherent in the face of the fact he imagined, and that even his own countrymen, such as Andrés Guardado, the owner of the shirt, had let him know.

“In these last days, I have been carried away by the passion and love I have for my country and have made inappropriate comments for which I want to apologize to Messi and the people of Argentina.. Every day we learn something new, and this time it’s my turn, ”the boxer from Guadalajara wrote on his Twitter account.

Finally, Argentina reached the round of 16 after defeating Poland, while Mexico, despite defeating Saudi Arabia, was not enough to qualify for the next stage and had to say goodbye to the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
