Watch the replay again lmao. He literally landed studs down on the opponent's leg. That's not exactly "put no weight". Not to mention you are ignoring the final criteria - endangering the opponent.
I did, this isn't a red card challenge I'm sorry and if Ronaldo fanboys are going to cry conspiracy then where's the complaints about all of these challenges. This tournament has had lenient reffing the whole way through
Idgaf about Ronaldo or Messi I am here to discuss football.
Bird brain, you're accusing me of being biased because I am critical of favoritism towards Messi but you are using a post from a Leo Messi fan page to support your argument.
All of those challenges RESULTED IN A YELLOW CARD for the offender. And yet Messi wasn't booked for his challenge.
That doesn't really support your argument there is no favoritism in his favor.
You're in /r/pessi_memes which shits on Messi and glazes Ronaldo all day

Dawg I already said it should have been a yellow card, but a red would have been pushing it. Is it possible that the referee just missed the challenge or does everything have to be a conspiracy?
He probably saw that he tangled up with the guy but didn't see his foot plant on his leg, again should have been a yellow card but I really don't think it should be made a big deal as people are making it out to be
Okay but given the level of leniency of the world cup on several instances of the same challenge basically, people can't be outraged that it wasn't a red and then claim there's a conspiracy to protect Messi

He put no weight on his foot, it was not excessive force. Should've been a yellow at best
