Lionel Messi Grabs Opponent's Throat During Preseason 'Friendly'

Lionel Messi uncharacteristically lost his cool in a Joan Gamper Trophy match on Wednesday night. His Barcelona side defeated Roma 3-0 in front of their home fans at Camp Nou, but the preseason "friendly" was overshadowed by Messi's altercation with Roma defender Mapou Yanga-Mbiwa. 
During a stoppage in play, Messi, a relatively mild-mannered individual on the pitch, charged up to Yanga-Mbiwa, clashed heads and then grabbed the Frenchman's throat.
