Argentina was powered to the World Cup final largely by the legendary feet of Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest player in soccer. However, there has to be a little extra motivation with Antonella Roccuzzo, Messi’s girlfriend and one of the world’s most popular WAGs, cheering them on in the stands. Messi has dated Roccuzzo since 2008 and the couple have a child together named Thiago born in 2012.
As Argentina advanced, Roccuzzo cheered them on both in the crowd and as well as Instagram. Roccuzzo posted a photo prior to one of Argentina’s games last Thursday with the caption “ARGENTINAAA!! ⚽️ #vamooos!!!!!”
She posted another on Wednesday with a similar caption—“Let CARAJOOO ARGENTINA!!”
Messi’s been transcendent in this World Cup, winning over legions of Argentinians who have foisted comparisons to Maradona on him. He’s registered four goals, as well as one assist, which was one of the finest assists of the entire tournament against in the Round of 16 vs. Switzerland. He’s third in goals scored for the entire World Cup, behind Germany’s Thomas Muller and Colombia’s James Rodriguez.
Messi’s normal job, playing for Barcelona, may have also gotten easier as well with the addition of Uruguayan star Luis Suarez. The premier Spanish club already hosted Messi and Brazilian star Neymar, so adding Suarez represents an embarrassment of riches.
Suarez is better known for his penchant for biting opposing players, but his goal-scoring prowess on the pitch should not be ignored.
