Edinson Cavani 'offered to fight Lionel Messi' during Argentina-Uruguay friendly

Paris Saint-Germain forward Edinson Cavani reportedly offered to fight Lionel Messi during Uruguay's 2-2 draw with Argentina in Tel Aviv on Monday night.

Both players scored goals during what was an entertaining affair in Israel, with Messi netting an injury-time penalty to rescue a draw for Lionel Scaloni's side.

A scuffle between the two started after a nasty tackle on the Barcelona star and continued when the players went down the tunnel.

According to Ole, the PSG striker was seen offering a fight to Messi, who in turn told Cavani that they could fight "whenever you want".

Messi was also recently involved in a touchline spat with Brazil manager Tite, telling the latter to "shut up" during a 1-0 win for Argentina in Riyadh.

The 32-year-old returned to international action this month after serving a three-month ban for accusing the CONMEBOL of corruption.
