Lionel Messi has been caught on camera shoving Andy Robertson in the back of the head during Liverpool and Barcelona's Champions League semi-final.
Robertson had been seen shoving Messi's head in the opening minutes of the Anfield clash, and there was an ongoing battle between the Liverpool left-back and the Barcelona star.
And it seems Messi got Robertson back later in the game for his early antics, as footage shows him walking up behind Robertson and pushing his head forward.
Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson intervened in a bid to calm the situation. But Messi continued to argue with Robertson and the referee eventually separated them.
Messi was not the only Barcelona player to target Robertson, as the left-back did not emerge for the second half after being injured in a clash with Luis Suarez.

I dont mind honestly Messi getting back to Robertson! He does have all the rights! Robbo started it first!!! So he got back at him! But it was a good tactics from Liv players! They were quiet physical with him. Robbo and Fab was all over him and they did get into his head, which was good for us in the end!!!😎

I am proud that our team fought bravely and lost We tried our best and I don't blame them.Liverpool as a team were by far more coordinated and strong.I was always a fan of Klopp and I was aware he could bring Liverpool to the glory they were searching for. My team did not give up and I am proud of that.Busquets, Pique ,Rakitic have all grown old.They tried their best against such an evergreen team of Liverpool. I am proud of my team.Thank you Barca for giving us such an entertaining match.We congratulate Liverpool again,they deserved this victory I know my club will come back stronger If we can make Semi Finals this year,we will surely make the finals the coming year after rectifying ourselves. Thank you once again Barca VISCA-EL-BARCA

This is karma. Messi punches Fabinho in the 1st leg and Messi gets shoved off by Robertson in the 2nd leg. What goes around, comes around.

Im still in pain 😣😣😣 when we win , we heap all praises on Messi , when we loose it's Vaverde and the other 10. Im even tired with our own Barcelona drama's. it's about time we notice the differences between Ronaldo and Messi in UCL. for Messi, we call him the camp nou mafia. yes indeed he is. our very own Messi scored 0 goals in the last UCL away matches since 2015. The player I hate most ,to be frank Is Ronaldo But this Ronaldo guy is just incredible and outstanding when we come to UCL. Ronaldo don't have any tag " Barnerbeu Mafia" or whatever. The guy scores wherever he goes to. he will surely deliver weather is home or away . though they were knocked out by Ajax , he scored in both legs. making him the player with highest goals in ajax own home land . For me is the GOAT in UCl

This is a Shameful thing as messi is a human but some people doesn't think he is Human sometimes they say he is the God of football. but his angers has fade it his dreams of bringing the trophy he promised to his club and that made it very bad results of the Anfield game that night, because Barca is dependent on messi and if messi is out of the game for uncontrolled of his emotions Barca would be mostly losing team, but tbh messi is mostly slow Unlike most of the players in the world. but every professional player has a heart and can be angry at anytime like Zidane did in 2006 world cup incident that headbutted as he hit materazzi on the chest which resulted France world cup failures, and that was even his last game of France National team.
