The FIFA World Cup finals are set as Argentina takes on France for the prestigious award. Lionel Messi has been on a tear, as usual, but fans show support in the best way possible.
After Argentina clinched a finals bid, fans couldn’t help but celebrate and party. However, unexpectedly, they swarmed the home of Messi’s late grandmother.
FOX Soccer shares the Tik Tok video of hundreds of people standing outside his grandmother’s old house. She, unfortunately, died back in 1998. Even so, fans made sure to honor Lionel Messi’s grandmother by chanting “the grandma of Messi.” Especially considering he honors her by pointing to the heavens every time he scores a goal.
