A video from the Argentina dressing room continues to cause a stir in Mexico.
Now politician Maria Clemente García wants to get Lionel Messi out of the country.
“Out of his apparent contempt.”Politician writes in motion.
Mexican politician María Clemente García, 37, is best known as a transgender activist and campaigner for LGBT rights.
Now I also got into the controversy surrounding Lionel Messi and the possible desecration of the Mexican match shirt.
“disrespect”
After Argentina won the World Cup over Mexico, Messi changed into the opponent’s shirt, then moved it with his foot while lying on the floor of the dressing room.
Messi’s video has, among other things, angered Mexican professional boxer Canelo Alvarez, and now politician Maria Clemente García is screaming.
I have now written a motion to the Mexican Parliament not to allow Messi into the country.
“Because of his blatant contempt and disrespect for Mexico during the World Cup.”The politician writes in his movement according to the mirror.
The opponent defends him
The handling of Lionel Messi’s shirt has been widely discussed and defended by Andres Guardado, who was the player who swapped shirts with Messi.
– I know what kind of person Leo is. To me it looks ridiculous. This is something that was created to create a buzz or similar division, says the Mexican veteran.
Argentina will play the World Cup quarter-finals against the Netherlands on Friday, and Messi has scored three goals so far in the tournament.
