PSG star Cavani: Messi bust-up normal for Clasico

PSG star Edinson Cavani has shrugged off his clash with Argentina captain Lionel Messi.

During Monday night's 2-2 draw between Argentina and Uruguay, Cavani and Messi confronted eachother before halftime, with it being claimed the Barcelona captain challenged the Uruguay striker to take their fight off the pitch.

However, after the game, Cavani laughed: "It was a tense game, at times, with shots. These are things of South American football. I think both teams did nice things. We leave with good feelings because we could play a good football.

"After all that, we know how football is, how are the Clasicos."
