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’.
