Lionel Messi paid 50 thousand dollars for every minute on the field against Israel. Argentine football journalist Roy Niemer told this information on his Twitter page.
Before the World Cup, the friendly match against Israel was scheduled to be held on June 9. The Israel Football Federation has already given $ 1 million to the Argentine Football Association to host the match in Jerusalem. The deal was to give Argentina more than $ 3 million after the match. Naturally the tour is canceled due to it is no longer getting it. On the contrary, they will have to give back 1 million dollars.
The Argentine Football Federation decided to cancel the preparatory match after Messi-Machanadera pressure. Political pressure is also a major reason.
In the Palestinian populace, anger started in the first place against the Israeli game against Israel. Many Argentine supporters and human rights activists were also opposing this match. When the match is played, Messi also said that the Palestinian people will support Israel's aggressive behavior. They have been relieved after the match was canceled.
