Chaos erupts in Argentina-Uruguay match! Lionel Messi loses his cool...

Argentina and Uruguay faced off in the South American World Cup Qualifiers. In the 26th minute of the match, tension flared between the players of both teams.

At that moment, an argument broke out involving players such as Rodrigo De Paul, Alexis Mac Allister, and Lionel Messi from Argentina, and Mathias Olivera and Sebastian Caceres from Uruguay. It was noted that Lionel Messi grabbed Olivera by the throat during this incident.

On the other hand, it was stated that prior to this argument, a comment and gesture made by Uruguay's Manuel Ugarte toward De Paul, saying "You only perform oral sex on Messi," had caused the situation to escalate.

"YOUNG PLAYERS MUST LEARN TO SHOW RESPECT"

In his post-match statement, Messi said, "Young players must learn to show respect. Uruguay is a good team, but they need to learn how to respect experienced players. Such matches are intense, but there must be respect. The young Uruguayan players should learn to be respectful!"

Meanwhile, Uruguay defeated Argentina 2-0 with goals from Ronald Araujo in the 41st minute and Darwin Nunez in the 87th minute. With this result, Argentina's 14-match unbeaten streak came to an end.
