The 2022 World Cup has ended with a beautiful ending for Lionel Messi and the Argentina team. In addition to the images of a happy football superstar with a golden trophy, many people are also impressed with a series of cute moments of the Messi family.

The special way he cheered for Messi before the final

Before the World Cup final, Antonela Roccuzzo – Messi’s wife also revealed how Thiago Messi supported his father and Argentina team. The boy copied the lyrics of the song “Muchachao” – a popular song in Argentina during the World Cup. The message that the song conveys is very meaningful:

“I was born in Argentina, the land of Diego, Lionel and of the Malvinas boys, whom I will never forget. It can’t be explained, because you won’t know, the final that we will have. I lost, I cried for years, but that’s over, because in Maracana, in the final against the Brazilians, we won again.

Guys, now we have hope again, I want to win the championship for the third time. I want to be the world champion, to put Diego in heaven with Don Diego and La Tota (Diego Maradona’s parents) cheering for Lionel.”

Obedient and… not interested in soccer, not idolizing dad

Commenting on his children, Messi also said that Thiago and Mateo have completely opposite personalities: “Thiago and Mateo are opposites. Thiago is a special talent and very obedient. The other is completely opposite. One real trouble”.

Since he was born, Thiago Messi has been expected to follow in his father’s footsteps, but Lionel Messi once said his son did not have much interest in football. However, Thiago is still often allowed to go to the football field by his parents and cheer him on.

In addition, Messi also has to admit that his eldest son does not idolize him. Instead the boy asked his father a lot of questions about Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Suárez, Antoine Griezmann, Arturo Vidal, Kylian Mbappé and Neymar.
