Messi kisses his wife and hugs his children to celebrate winning the 2024 Copa America

Messi embraces his wife Antonella after winning the 2024 Copa America with Argentina in Florida. This year’s tournament was held in the United States, where Messi’s family lives, so his wife and children came to the stadium to cheer.

After the victory, the Argentine captain hugged and kissed his wife and enjoyed a sweet moment with his family.

Antonella’s wife posted a photo of the family next to the Copa America stadium. Messi’s wife and children wore dark blue jerseys, while his family chose Argentina’s traditional blue and white striped jerseys.

The 37-year-old superstar hugged and chatted with his three children, Thiago, Mateo and Ciro.

This morning at Hard Rock Stadium in Florida, Messi had to leave the pitch midway through the second half with an ankle injury. The 37-year-old superstar sat in the home team’s technical area after leaving the pitch and broke down in tears. As the game went into extra time, the Argentina captain was restless.

The “injured” Messi was overjoyed when Argentina won 1-0. Lautaro Martinez scored in the 112th minute and became Argentina’s hero.

Messi and his teammates successfully defended the 2021 America’s Cup title. This victory helped Argentina surpass Uruguay and become the team with the most America’s Cup titles with 16 titles.

“One more time”, Messi wrote in the caption of the Copa America photo. Before winning two consecutive titles, the legendary striker experienced days of extreme disappointment, losing two consecutive Copa America finals against Chile in 2015 and 2016.
