Lionel Messi’s opponent bows down to him

LIONEL MESSI DA GAWD.

When Trinidad and Tobago and Argentina met in a friendly on Wednesday night, the teams came out, the national anthems were played and the players shook hands. It was a completely normal match.

Until Ataullah Guerra bowed to Lionel Messi.

Now, one might laugh at Guerra. One might also wonder why he would bow. But one would also be wrong.

The better question is why isn't everyone else bowing to Messi? Argentina's players too. Show some goddamn respect, heathens.
