Real Sociedad's Asier Illarramendi believes Lionel Messi should have been sent off in their 1-0 Copa del Rey defeat to Barcelona on Thursday.
The Argentinian received a yellow card for time wasting in the first half at the Anoeta Stadium but escaped a second for obstructing the midfielder as he attempted to take a quick free-kick. Per ESPN FC's Samuel Marsden, Illarramendi said:
The offside against [David] Zurutuza is not offside and Messi...that's always been a yellow-card offense.
If he'd been wearing another shirt he would have been sent off.
