Highlights from Lionel Messi’s historic match against Newell’s

It was a historic match. For Lionel Messi and for Newell’s. The friendly in Fort Lauderdale against Inter Miami It marked the first time since he became a professional that La Pulga faced Lepra, the club where he began his path to the altar of football. And such an event left a couple of facts to highlight and immortalize.

The first occurred in the previous round and does not have Messi as its direct protagonist. A simple Instagram story caused a revolution among Newell’s fans, those who did not have the privilege of traveling to the United States, occupying a seat at the DVR PNK stadium and watching the duel live.

The model traveled with her children and showed all the intimacy and excitement of seeing the captain of the National Team.

Was Carolina ‘Pampita’ Ardohain who, in the middle of his vacation in the city of the state of Florida, took time to enjoy a little soccer with two of his children. But the real ‘out of context’ came when the model was photographed wearing the Newell’s t-shirt, being a well-known Boca fan. Her children were divided: one used Leprosy’s and the other used Inter Miami’s.

Another important moment occurred at halftime, perhaps to avoid crowding and taking advantage of the fact that the result was 0-0. When Inter Miami returned from the locker room, Maximiliano Rodríguez was waiting with two red and black jerseys. Your goals for him? Lionel Messi and Gerardo Tata Martino.

The last pearls came in the post-match. It was not the single line that almost the entire Newell’s team made in order to have their photograph with the Argentine star, who agreed without problems and with a smile. But a little while before, when the referee had barely whistled the end of the match.

Franco Diazthe scorer of Newell’s goal, ran into the world champion and couldn’t resist kissing him on the head, hugging him and continuing walking, perhaps trying to absorb some of his magic.

There were several shirts with Messi’s number that were distributed in the locker room. The one he used in the game he did not let go of during all those protocol events that took place in the post-game. Augusto Schott showed that he took one with the signature bonus, but the smile that the kid showed Misael Jaimewho a while before had walked with Díaz next to the Flea, denoted that perhaps it was the ‘original’.

Misael Jaime kept one of Lionel Messi’s shirts after the friendly between Inter Miami and Newell’s.

Messi’s post and what Tata Martino said

It was the first time that Messi, facing an Argentine team, did not win. He had achieved it against Estudiantes de La Plata, River and Boca in his three previous matches. That special situation was reflected by the 36-year-old forward himself in a post on his Instagram account. “A special match”wrote.

The meeting served, among many other reasons, to see Lionel Messi fully, after the muscle discomfort that caused concern (and controversy) during the pink team’s tour of Asia.

“I see him fully recovered. Yes, we take him little by little. In Tokyo he did 30 minutes, tonight he did almost 60. The idea is that he arrives well, prepared, for the 21st. From what we saw today on the field and the way he accelerated, joined forces and arrived in the area”Tata Martino explained at a press conference.

Inter Miami, in the last match of a preseason in which they only won one friendly (against a team from the Hong Kong First Division), closed their preparation with a draw against Leprosy. Shanyder Borgelin put the locals up for sale, but Franco Díaz left everything the same for the visitors.

“It was a match, for many of us who have a very strong bond with Newell’s, special and nice, a friendly to enjoy and we have enjoyed it (…). The truth is that it was a nice night”assured the DT.
