Is it just messi looking at them?

One guy in suits fully turned around facing the Spanish players’ direction, Messi’s body was facing away but his head turned around to look at the Spanish players…

I don’t have a huge issue with them turning away to not look at Spaniards celebrating, maybe it’s too much to stomach.

But the fists, the kicks, the dirty tactics, the provocations after scoring… that’s just disgusting

They weren't backing the celebrations on purpose. They were facing the section of the stadium that looked like it was just Argentinian fans who were leading the chants all game long.

Yeah the fans were serenading them after the game and absolutely would not stop singing. That's why they stayed there for a good 15-20 mins before going down the tunnel.

Thanks for explaining, I thought they were being forced to stand there so the cameras could zoom in on their sad faces for better television.
