Lionel Messi drew criticism when he grabbed the back of New York City FC’s Assistant Coach Mehdi Ballouchy’s neck after a draw in Inter Miami’s season opener on Feb. 22. The Inter Miami star was given a yellow card for arguing with the referee after the final whistle sealed the 2-2 draw. USA Today’s Messi reporter, Safi Deen, said, “Messi should be fined and forced to issue an apology for his actions.” Apple TV’s Taylor Twellman posted on X: “Not a great look. Grabbing an assistant coach by the neck. Going after the ref.” (Credit: Jose Armando via Storyful)
