Did Messi "death stare" Valverde after Slavia Prague's goal?

It was an extremely tense moment. Slavia equalised in the 50th minute of the match, and Leo Messi threw his hands around his waist, turned around and looked at Barcelona's technical area.

There was Ernesto Valverde, with a serious gesture, looking towards the goal in which Slavia had just drawn. His gaze was as fixed on that part of the field... as Messi was on Valverde himself.

In a video captured by the cameras of '#Vamos', it is cleat that Messi spends a good 10 seconds starting Ernesto Valverde... who didn't notice or perhaps tried to pretend nothing was happening.

The images, logically, are becoming quite controversial. Tancredi Palmedi, Italian journalist for 'beIN Sports' and 'La Gazzetta dello Sport', shared the video with a warning message: "If I were Valverde... I'd start worrying."
