Let’s just say Lionel Messi‘s youngest son was a bit pumped up for the start of Argentina’s victory at the World Cup – but not before his mother, Antonella Roccuzzo, appeared to scold him.
Four-year-old Ciro Messi was pictured jumping on top of the seats and spotted running in the suite section at Stadium 974 on Wednesday, according to Argentine news outlet TN.
The excitement demonstrated by the youngest of Messi’s three children – all boys – prior to the clash with Poland was enough to draw a death stare from his mother.
Roccuzzo could then be seen gesturing at Ciro in an attempt to get him to behave before order was restored.
