Argentina won their third World Cup in their history exactly nine months ago, on December 18, 2022. They defeated the defending champions, France, in the penalty shootout 4-2. The World Cup glory came to Albiceleste after 36 years. It was Diego Maradona who helped the country lift the ultimate soccer trophy in 1986 in Mexico.
Messi’s performance all around the tournament was pivotal for the nation’s success. The former Barcelona and Paris-Saint-Germain star scored seven goals and made three assists in the tournament. He received the Golden Ball award for the second time in his career, as he was the Man of the Match for the most number of matches.
The Argentine great’s wife, Antonela Roccuzzo‘s picture went all over the internet. The supermodel was seen in tears while lifting the trophy. Fans appreciated her for her endless support of the soccer legend.

However, after nine months, many netizens are mocking Latina. They mentioned that they assumed she would get pregnant with another of Messi’s children due to the joy of winning that night.
Few even took to social media to troll the Latina. One fan said, “Greatest pull-out game of all time.” Another fan joked as he said, “She won’t even see him that night. Man spent the whole week with the boys.. let’s wait for next month.” And a third fan commented, “Can’t believe Antonela isn’t having a kid today”.
The World Cup was the only trophy missing from Messi‘s long list of achievements. The achievement was truly one of his dreams come true moments. And it was quite evident from his reactions after the finals, as he broke down into tears. In 2021, the player already achieved another success by winning Copa America for the first time when he defeated arch-rival Brazil.
