Lionel Messi commented on the case, why he does not sing the national anthem before the start of any meeting.

It should be noted that this behavior is not just how outraged the fans of the Argentina national team, who eventually blamed their leader and captain for unpatriotism.

"We are going through a difficult period in the team of Argentina. I get angry when the fans attack us, claiming that we do not feel proud when we wear T-shirts with national colors.

We reached the finals of the World Cup and Copa America, and people behave as if we did not achieve anything.

When the fans began to complain, I deliberately stopped singing the anthem. Whether you eat it or not, it does not change anything. I will not do it at someone's request. I do not need to sing a hymn to feel it. Argentine rugby players cry, I do it my own way ", - quotes the words of the owner of 5 Golden Balls edition" Marca ".

Recall that the defender of the Donetsk "Shakhtar" and the national team of Ukraine Yaroslav Rakitsky also received from the fans not very pleasant words in his address precisely because of a similar situation.
