A funny moment involving Messi and little Mateo is being shared again.
Mateo – Messi’s second son – is known as the one who teases his father the most in the family. Many times, the 8-year-old boy humorously teased Messi when he lost a match. Recently, netizens shared a funny moment of Mateo in the stands that made viewers both surprised and laughed.
The moment came during a match in 2019, when Messi and Luis Suarez were still playing for Barca. Unable to play that day, the two stars and their families had to sit in the stands to cheer on their team against Real Betis.
