Man City assistant coach and midfielder suspected of insulting Messi

Man City midfielder Fernandinho and assistant Mikel Arteta are believed to be the culprits in the fight with Lionel Messi (Barcelona) after the match between the two teams in the Champions League group stage.

The first player suspected of mocking Lionel Messi was midfielder Fernandinho. However, Fernandinho himself denied the accusation.

According to the former Porto player, he went straight to the dressing room and did not have any contact with any member of the Barca team. Fernandinho himself also affirmed that he is not the type of person who likes to talk badly or provoke others.

The second case belongs to assistant Mikel Arteta. According to The Sun, Pep Guardiola's assistant at Man City celebrated a bit too much in the tunnel, making Messi angry: "Go to the dressing room and be happy, don't do that here". Arteta has not yet commented on the information given by The Sun.

Fernandinho really wronged?

As we know, after that unclear situation, still not over the loss at Etihad Stadium and being provoked by the opponent, Messi flew into a rage and rushed into the Man City locker room to find the aggressor.

The Argentine star showed that he was no pushover when he rushed in and shouted: "Whoever just cursed at me, come out here!". In the tense atmosphere, many players from both teams had to quickly come to stop it. But only when Messi's close friend Sergio Aguero stepped in to mediate did the superstar born in 1987 let it go.

Sharing with the press afterwards, Aguero said: "Every time you lose, you are usually not satisfied. He is the same. I know him well, so I know when he is okay, when he is not. But when you lose, no one can keep calm. It is not serious. I heard something, but I do not know specifically"./.
