The Disciplinary Court of the Conmebol announced a three-month suspension for Lionel Messi for official and friendly matches of the Argentine national team, as well as a fine of 50,000 dollars. This didn't bother the South American who was enjoying dinner with his partner, family and friends, including Cesc Fábregas' wife.

The Conmebol added in its statement that this decision is subject to appeal by the player to the Appeals Chamber of the highest authority in South American football. The sanction does not affect the matches of the Argentine national team for the qualification of the World Cup in Qatar, as these begin in March 2020. However, he would miss the friendly matches that the Albiceleste will play against Mexico and Chile, in September, and against Germany and the Basque Country selection in October.

Messi stated, after his team was eliminated from the Copa America in Brazil, in July, that there was corruption in the tournament and that Argentina's campaign was deliberately hindered. "I didn't go for a little bit of everything. I think we should not be part of that corruption. The disrespect that was done to us during this cup. We leave with the feeling that we were capable of more, that we played two of the best games against Brazil and today," he said after the match that the Albiceleste won 2-1 against Chile for third place.

As a reminder, Lionel Messi was expelled before the end of the first half of that match along with the Chilean Gary Medel. As a result of that expulsion, Messi was sanctioned at the end of July with a one-match suspension and a fine of 1,500 dollars by Conmebol.
