Lionel Messi was lucky to come away unscathed after being on the end of a rather nasty challenge during Barcelona's 2-1 win over Villarreal.
Manu Trigueros was shown a straight red card for jumping into a tackle against Messi, raking his studs up the Argentine's legs in the process.
Messi managed to get up from the challenge after appearing to be hurt immediately afterwards. He ended up seeing out the match.

I saw some fan base complaining that Messi was acting. If you ever watched football you should know Messi doesn't dive, don't act, you put 10 players on him and he will still try to stand and mover forward. Yes Trigueros won the ball first but it doesn't mean you can go and break players leg in follow up.. It was very nasty challenge and deserve red card for sure..
