There are times in which, by very strong that are mentally, the impotence can you. This same occurred him to Messi when, in tenth of second, went through him the head the fleeting idea to give a 'collejón' to Asier Villalibre in full driving to the aledaños of the goal of Unai Simón. 'The Flea' know very well that now there are cameras by all sides, and that the VAR is used to to punish actions of this type with the maximum penalty.
But, clear is, in these situations the reason is substituted by the more primitive and wild impulses. Messi soltó the arm, Gil Manzano did not see it but Hernández Hernández himself did it from the VAR. Second after the main referee reviewed the aggression in the monitor, Leo Messi already was expelled and walked of form turned off -and grieved- course to the changing rooms.
Many will have taken advantage of the expulsion of the Argentinian for soltar atrocities against him and blasfemar, like this, against the best footballer of all time. Of form more than unfair, because in more than three lustros of magic the '10' never has showed to be a violent player. All the contrary: it has received more sticks that anybody, has suffered aggressions that have not been punished properly and, even so, has followed marvelling without rechistar.
Not even it can consider a 'piscinero', as others, and this that has had spare opportunities to cause penaltis, cards, dangerous faults and, in definite, a quantity indescifrable of positive consequences for his team. And however, Leo Messi always has kept an attitude honoured on the terrains of game, that would not have to remain 'marked' by a so punctual action like the one of this Sunday.
An alien with human reactions
Messi is an alien when it speaks of football, but this does not remove that it also was human. And, as all, there are times in which it makes a mistake. The captain rosarino, that was cabizbajo and visibly affected of the field against the Athletic, will need to make a fresh start what before to help to his mates, in the measure of the possible, to save the present season 2020-21 raising some title.
Independently of the parties that finish losing by sanction, the '10' will have to go back stronger and fresco, especially mentally, to face up to the next challenges of the FC Barcelona. The calendar no for, and the requirement is maximum. That anybody crucifique to Messi by this, because no deserves it to him. And what faster disappear the feeling of fault, before will go back to enjoy of his magic.
