Lionel Messi has admitted he is not proud of losing his cool during the World Cup quarter-final between Argentina and the Netherlands.
Argentina's win over the Dutch was a memorable but bad-tempered encounter, which saw 15 yellow cards brandished by Spanish referee Antonio Mateu Lahoz. The match went to penalties after it finished 2-2 in normal time when Wout Weghorst dramatically equalised late in stoppage time.
Messi was spotted arguing with Dutch manager Louis van Gaal and his assistant Edgar Davids at full-time, he is then believed to have turned to double goalscorer Weghorst during an interview and shouted: "What are you looking at fool? Get back there."
