Louis van Gaal on Messi FIFA marketing

Louis van Gaal has reignited his feud with Lionel Messi and Argentina, claiming FIFA is favoring the star for marketing purposes. In a new interview, the Dutch coach said: "They laughed at me three years ago, but look NOW, it's happening again. I get that FIFA wants Messi to advance for marketing, but football is for EVERYONE, not just one player. Let's not forget, the same player got a free Club World Cup invite for no reason." He also referenced Argentina's World Cup victory, suggesting the refereeing was biased in their favor. T
