VID claims that the contract it signed with the Argentine Football Association was worth $7 million. The event organizer also insist in the suit that they were only made aware of Messi's refusal to play in the first friendly the day before - and the decision was not communicated by the AFA in a timely manner. That sequence of events, they say, hurt their ability to sell tickets.
