Messi's son refused to hug his father. Why? VIDEO
Even during another huge celebration, Lionel Messi was caught off guard by his own son's hilarious reaction.
Details: A funny family moment involving Lionel Messi and his youngest son Ciro went viral after Inter Miami's Campeones Cup triumph over Cruz Azul. As the Argentine celebrated on the pitch with his family, Ciro approached his father and touched his sweat-soaked back. The boy then immediately brought his hand to his nose and smelled it, appearing far less enthusiastic about continuing the embrace.
Messi immediately noticed what Ciro had done and could not contain his laughter. The Inter Miami captain smiled at his son's reaction before pulling him close and giving him a kiss, turning the awkward attempt at a hug into one of the most amusing moments of the celebrations.
The scene came after a memorable night for Messi and Inter Miami. The Florida side defeated Cruz Azul 2-0 in the Campeones Cup, with the Argentine opening the scoring in the 24th minute before Casemiro sealed the victory in the second half.
It is worth noting that Messi's goal against Cruz Azul was his 100th for Inter Miami in all competitions. The Argentine reached the milestone in his 115th appearance for the club.
