Argentina said goodbye to the dream of winning the Copa America title after losing 2-0 to Brazil in the semifinals. Once the elimination was confirmed, the commentator Sebastian Vignolo gave his conclusions about what the match left him.
In a concise but strong post on Twitter, the Argentine journalist talked about Lionel Messi, criticized the refereeing and highlighted what the 'Albiceleste' did on the field of the Mineirao Stadium in Belo Horizonte.
It is crystal clear Messi, the refereeing of tonight was a disgrace, what is serious is that there is VAR... What do I know. Good match for Argentina.

"It is crystal clear Messi, the refereeing of tonight was a disgrace, what is serious is that there is VAR... What do I know. Good match for Argentina," wrote Vignolo, who narrated the South American classic for a channel in his country.
A goal by Gabriel Jesus, in the 19th minute, and another by Roberto Firmino, in the 71st, gave Brazil the victory over Argentina and the qualification for the Copa America final, which will be played next Sunday at the Maracana stadium.
Gabriel Jesus' early goal, after a great play by Dani Alves, marked the match. Argentina tried to take control, but was not lucky. It hit the crossbar with a shot from Sergio Aguero in the first half, and hit the post in the second half with a shot from Lionel Messi, who had his best game of the tournament.
When the 'Albiceleste' was playing its best, a counterattack led by Gabriel Jesus and finished by Firmino meant the sentence, while coach Lionel Scaloni claimed a foul in the opposing area.
