Messi lived an unfortunate situation on the pitch but remained calm.

Having Lionel Messi playing in your stadium is something that few teams can boast. Virtually every club would like to have the Argentine star scoring a goal in their stadium or showing some of his talent, but if there is one thing that stands out in Ligue 1, it is the indifference to it.

In Paris Saint Germain's match against Nantes there was a curious image with Lionel Messi as he went to kick a corner kick and two lighters were thrown at him from the stands. The atmosphere of the stadium was hostile but Messi did not seemed bothered by the situation.

The Argentine pretended to kick the corner and the two lighters fell in the pitch. The referee stopped the match, Messi went over to take the lighter from the ground, but the referee did not like it and stopped the match for a few minutes. He went to talk to the head of security at the stadium so that this would not happen again because if it hit him it would be a worldwide image.

After that, the security was reinforced in both corners and the atmosphere calmed down after Kylian Mbappé scored the 1-0, Nantes was left with ten men after the red card against Fabio da Silva and then, the dominance of Galtier's team was absolute.

Messi sets an example

In this way, Messi sets an example for all of the players who tend to make a big deal of situations like these. He kept a low profile despite the hostile atmosphere in the first few minutes of the match, and provided two assists to Kylian Mbappé.
