Barcelona 3-0 Liverpool: Petition to ban Lionel Messi for Champions League ‘punch’ on Fabinho reaches 10,000 signature mark
The petition to have UEFA ban Barcelona’s Lionel Messi retrospectively for a ‘punch’ on Liverpool star Fabinho has now gone received more than 10,000 signatures.Reds fans allege the diminutive Argentine struck their Brazilian midfielder during their 3-0 defeat to the Spanish giants at the Camp Nou on Wednesday night, where Messi scored a magical free-kick to leave the Reds needing an Anfield miracle next week.The incident which led to Messi’s free-kick3
The incident which led to Messi’s free-kick
But some fans have taken issue with the awarding of the set-piece, claiming it was actually Messi who committed the foul.Fabinho was adjudged to have blocked Messi’s run as the Barcelona star tried to play a one-two with Luis Suarez.The Liverpool midfielder was booked for getting in Messi’s way, but some supporters have argued that, instead, the Argentine launched himself at Fabinho. As Messi seemingly tries to hurdle the challenge, his hand appears to make contact with the face of Fabinho, who went down holding his head.And one Liverpool fan felt so aggrieved by the decision, they took to change.org to create a petition titled: ‘Get Messi a retrospective ban for clearly punching Fabinho in the head’.
