Lionel Messi was irate over the officiating in Argentina’s penalty shootout win over the Netherlands on Friday, criticizing referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz.
The game featured 16 yellow cards, multiple scraps between the two teams, a late tying goal from the Netherlands and multiple controversial moments.
“After they got the draw, I felt a lot of anger,” Messi said. “I don’t want to talk about the referee, because they immediately reprimand you or sanction you, but I think people saw what happened.
