FC Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi has been in the news for all the wrong reasons. In a rare show of raw emotions, Messi head-butted AS Roma defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa and barely missed the red card in an international friendly game at Camp Nou on Wednesday. The incident comes close on the heels of another bad publicity about Lionel Messi visiting the African State of Gabon for promoting the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations. The Human Rights Foundation severely criticized Lionel Messi for meeting Gabonese dictator Ali Bongo, who is accused of murdering children as a ritual.
