Minister Avigdor Lieberman commented about Messi's missed penalty shot that left Argentina drawing to a tie with Iceland in the World Cup game the other day. Lieberman said that Messi really could have used that exhibition game against Israel that he canceled.
I heard many comments in a similar vein over the past day or so. Some tied it more in as a divine punishment of sorts for canceling the game. I myself joked when my son mentioned it that he deserved it for what he did.
We Israelis are a funny bunch..
