A massive Lionel Messi fan was left in awe after encountering the Inter Miami player through his car window, receiving a kiss on the cheek from his idol. The fan could not believe his luck as Messi, who recently made his move to Miami, was spotted in traffic and approached by the excited supporter in a heartwarming video shared on social media. With the car window rolled down, the Argentina captain warmly accepted a handshake before the fan leaned in hoping for a kiss. Messi graciously planted a kiss on the fan’s cheek, leaving him ecstatic and proclaiming, ‘Te amo Messi (I love you Messi)’ as the soccer star drove off. Overwhelmed with emotion after receiving a kiss from the soccer legend, the fan was on the verge of tears, holding his head in disbelief at the unforgettable moment.
Lionel Messi shocked one of his biggest fans by leaning out of his car window to plant a kiss on his cheek.
Messi first greeted the fan with a handshake when they approached him at his car window.
The young boy leaned in, hoping for a kiss, and Messi happily granted his request. Messi fever has taken over the United States this summer, with another fan kissing the Miami soccer superstar as he exited a restaurant in the city last month. Before his transfer was officially confirmed, the 36-year-old tried to leave an Italian restaurant in Miami Beach through the back door with his family – his wife Antonela Roccuzzo, their three sons Mateo, Thiago, and Ciro, and his father Jorge. Despite attempting a discreet exit with the help of the restaurant owner Gerardo Cea, Messi was quickly surrounded by fans seeking photos and autographs. One fan in an Argentina jersey stopped Messi for a selfie on the street and managed to sneak in a kiss on his cheek as he took the photo. Messi seemed unperturbed by the unexpected gesture and moved on to join his family. The former Barcelona and Paris St-Germain star has made a strong start for Miami, scoring seven goals in his first four games for the club. From a stunning 94th-minute free-kick on his debut against Cruz Azul to scoring twice in each of his next three matches, Messi continues to dazzle fans with his skills. In his latest game, Messi calmly converted a penalty as Miami triumphed in a Leagues Cup shootout against FC Dallas.

Messi has had a fantastic start to his time with Miami, scoring an impressive seven goals in just four games. In less than a month with the team, he has already climbed the ranks to become the joint-fourth highest scorer in Miami history, along with teammates Josef Martinez, Lewis Morgan, and Rodolfo Pizarro. The only players ahead of him are Gonzalo Higuain, Leo Campana, and Robert Taylor. After his amazing performance on Sunday, even Taylor Twellman from Apple TV couldn’t help but compare Messi to NFL legend Tom Brady. Twellman highlighted a strange own-goal by Dallas defender Marco Farfan from one of Messi’s free kicks, noting that facing a player like Messi can make opponents feel out of their element and uncomfortable, much like facing Brady and Belichick in the NFL. In every game Messi has played, the opposition has been left feeling unnerved – just like how teams often felt when facing the New England Patriots. This just goes to show the impact that star players like Messi can have on their opponents.
