Workshop fan reveals anecdote with Messi: “He accepted me to eat a barbecue and did not come” | VIDEO

Lionel Messi is one of the most beloved footballers in the world and in Argentina they are the proudest to have him. A Talleres fan showed his great devotion to the ‘Flea’ with the special shirt that he made and even revealed that he had the opportunity to spend a more friendly moment with the footballer.

In the previous match Talleres vs. River Plate, the young man was interviewed by TyC Sports and told the funny anecdote. “When all the news came out that it was not known where Messi was going to play, a message came to me on Facebook and they told me: ‘We are going to bring him.’ That’s why I bought my shirt”, The fan explained about the print on his polo shirt with the name of his idol.

However, it was not the only event he had with the now PSG player. “There is yet another story with Lionel Messi. We were neighbors, I came across it quite often when I lived for two years in Spain. I met him and even invited him to eat a barbecue, but it was not”, He recounted regretfully.

“I gave him a Workshop T-shirt. The first time I saw him I gave it to him, I invited him to have the roast and I did not ask for a photo, so that he would say that I did not annoy him much, that I even invited him to eat”, Commented the fan of Workshops, highlighting that he tried to make merits so that the athlete accepts the food.

“Do you know what the worst is? He told me he was coming and even Antonela assured him. I’m still waiting for you, Leo”, Concluded the young man, making it clear that the invitation still stands. For now, he only has to continue watching and enjoying Lionel Messi’s game from off the court.

Bitter result for Talleres fans

The joy of the fans of Talleres is great regarding the sporting present of their team, since they are in second place in the Professional League. However, the recent game only left a bitterness: they fell at home 2-0 against River Plate, the current leader that already has seven points ahead of them in the standings.
