Antonela Roccuzzo didn’t miss a second.
In the stands, alongside Celia Cuccittini, Lionel Messi’s mother, she watched her husband’s goal for the Argentina national team with her heart in her throat. It was the farewell match against Benin, a night that felt like the end of an era, and the two women who have always been by his side were there, celebrating every moment as if it were the first.

Because behind every title, every record, and every goal, there are people who put up with the travel, the injuries, and the absences. One is the mother who watched him take his first touches of the ball; the other, the partner who knew him as a child and gives him a home today. Both are on the same team, the one that never changes 🇦🇷❤️
