Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, has slammed French media for \u2018killing\u2019 Paris Saint-Germain forward, Lionel Messi.<\/p>\n

Aguero said this while defending Messi after the seven-time Ballon d\u2019 Or winner was slammed for his poor performance during PSG\u2019s Champions League round of 16 first-leg 1-0 victory against Real Madrid on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Messi was handed just a three out of 10 rating by French outlet, L\u2019Equipe, for his \u2018worrying\u2019 limp display after his dramatic penalty miss against Real Madrid during the encounter.<\/p>\n

The former Barcelona captain failed to convert from 12 yards when handed a spot-kick against Real Madrid, with goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois saving his effort.<\/p>\n

But Kylian Mbappe scored a late goal to ensure PSG defeated the Los Blancos in Paris.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat s**t this Leo penalty story. He played well, broke lines. He was good and very active,\u201d Aguero told RMC Sport.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn France, magazines and newspapers killed him. They are a******s.\u201d#<\/p>\n
