- Well, this was tough to make.
Lionel Messi has been in Chinese headlines for all the wrong reasons lately, and the fanbase is still livid with him. But what happened? How did he forsake his reputation among Chinese football fans during that match in Hong Kong?
Note: This includes my opinion, which you're free to disagree with.

To be clear: I'm not trying to destroy Messi's character or convince you he doesn't deserve support. If you remain a Messi fan after watching this, I completely understand. I just want to explain how he offended the Chinese fanbase and why our fans are so pissed with him.
Thanks for clarifying the situation!! Nice video
New series.

Messi looked down on Chinese fans
No player has no obligation to play when they are injured or risking injury.
Rest of world does not care about Japan/China history. Football players are not history professors.
If you are offended Messi played in Japan, its your insecurity speaking.
Consult a therapist to get help with your victim complex.
Our problem isn't that Messi didn't play, of course he shouldn't when he's injured. But it wasn't announced beforehand and he didn't even address the crowd. That's where our grievances actually lie.
The company that signed the contract with Inter Miami, Tatler Asia, mislead the public that he was going to play. And the reason why Messi behaved the way he did was because the officials in the Hong Kong government wanted him to do additional promotion for the city at the last minute and didn’t go through normal procedures like other countries/cities do. Japan setup the match through the “normal” route giving plenty of time for negotiations and preparations. Hong Kong did not. All the ticket proceeds didn’t go to Inter Miami or Messi. Tatler Asia negotiated a flat fee with Inter Miami.
Also, he didn’t take photos with the fans because the Hong Kong government officials wanted to use him for political reasons. He was more than happy to take pics with the kids in Japan because there wasn’t a political agenda to the match.
Messi isn’t stupid. He won’t be used as a political pawn. They wanted him to take photos with a sanctioned official John Lee. That would have been detrimental to Messi’s image which is extremely valuable to himself and all that is affiliated with him.
Fair, I can take Messi not taking photos with officials. And not announcing his injury is definitely on the club/organizers.
But he could've taken photos with the fans, signed autographs or really just addressed the crowd.
@@unilife4603 The problem with that is that with how the Chinese Gov' works, any of those fans could also be CCP officials on their day off and taking a photo with someone like that could also have image issues. As a famous foreigner in China it just feels safer to not risk those interactions.
When did he apologized ? .
He spoke in an interview while in Japan then released an apology video a few days ago
Don't give Messi a chance anymore. You can see where his principles lie.
CR7>Messi in all aspects! As a player, as a human being, in honesty, dedication and even humility, Yes! Humility! He might come off as arrogant and full of himself some times but it's just that...when you start comparing their attitude you will find out that CR7 never has shown false humility or hypocrisy. While Messi make a big effort to look like he's so humble and sincere but then the small actions will tell the opposite 😂
Sounds like Messi deserves another Balon d'Or. As for who is the real GOAT... Cristiano 🇵🇹 now has 55 more career goals than Messi 🇦🇷, the largest goal difference in their epic, decades long rivalry. In fact, Messi hasn't scored an official club goal since August of 2023. Do the math on that stat.
