A news agency obtained behind-the-scenes details of the tense conversation that took place between Lionel Messi, captain of the Argentina national team, and Spain's defender Marc Cucurella during the 2026 World Cup final. The disagreement arose when Cucurella approached to check on Messi, but he protested because Cucurella was covering his mouth while speaking. The situation escalated when Enzo Fernandez intervened, informing the referee that Cucurella had covered his mouth, prompting a request from Messi to use Video Assistant Referee (VAR) technology to review the incident. The incident sparked widespread controversy on social media, as Messi called for the moment to be reviewed via video, and the controversy did not end there.
