Leo Messi survives a career ending tackle from his counterpart: Watch video
Star footballer Lionel Messi escaped a brutal tackle during Argentina’s win over Venezuela on Thursday (local time).
In the 27th minute of the match, Messi received a tackle from Venezuela Luis Martinez which the Argentine media are describing as “criminal”. Martinez’s brutal kick went straight to Messi’s left leg, leaving him in a heap on the ground as concerned teammates and fans watched, wondering what would happen.
At the age of 34, it’s not an exaggeration to say that tackle could have ended Messi’s career, but luckily the six-time Ballon d’Or winner escaped with just a bruised leg and played the entire 90 minutes.
Meanwhile, after a VAR check, Martinez was deservedly given a red card.
Here’s the video of the tackle:
Talking about the match, Argentina extended their unbeaten run to 21 games with a comfortable 3-1 win over Venezuela in their World Cup qualifier in Caracas.

What monkey fled with a bag containing evidence in it: Read full story
The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.
In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).
The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.
The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.
Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.
In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.
The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
