Fans snapped photos of soccer legend Lionel Messi, who also holds the world crown. The actor himself shared the photo on social media.
Messi posted the photos on Instagram with the caption “Booyan deya” (good morning). The first image portrays him while he sleeps with a golden cup on his pillow. A photo of him leaning against a pillow with a cup next to his body and a photo of him having a drink while holding a cup were also posted.
The picture shared on Instagram was liked by more than a crore of people in two hours. Co-star Paulo Dybala was the first to comment on the photo. Dybala’s question is not a good morning. Many people commented that it was a dream come true, while many people responded as Got and Legend. Adidas football commented that it should wake up like this.
A royal welcome was given to Messi and his squad as they returned home on Tuesday morning after winning the soccer world championship. Coach Scoloni and his 26-member team landed at Buenos Aires’ Issa Airport at around 2:40am local time. After Messi and Scaloni stepped off the plane with crowns in hand, their teammates got off, and the airport area became a sea of excitement.
Thousands lined both sides of the road to greet the team as they began their journey through the capital with the cup. Argentina defeated France in a long game leading up to the shootout. Messi, who played throughout the tournament, was the winner of the team in the final.
