Lionel Messi and his Barcelona crew took on Roma in what was supposed to be a friendly, but it turned out to be anything but that. Check out Messi absolutely losing it on Roma’s Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa and in the process delivering a headbutt (which mainly missed) and then choking him with one hand. We have no clue what caused Messi’s physical outburst, but we will update as we hear more. Shockingly, Messi only received a yellow card for his actions.
As you can see below, this is not a great look.

It isn’t much better from this angle either.

For good measure Messi also scored a goal for Barcelona in the 40th minute of play.
