What happened to Messi's bodyguard in the match against LAFC?
The duel between LAFC and Inter Miami was one of the most anticipated of the weekend in the MLS, as Argentine star Lionel Messi returned to action after the bitter goalless draw against Cincinnati against one of the best teams in the American championship. As always, the arena was crowded to see Leo even if they were not playing as locals.
Another one who can never fail is Lionel Messi's bodyguard, who is like his shadow and is constantly seen running along the sideline accompanying every play of the Argentine star, watching over his security.
What happened to Messi's bodyguard in the match against LAFC?
It was the 72nd minute of the match and the score was still 2-0 in favor of the Miami team when the actions were momentarily stopped due to a yellow card, a situation that a fan in the stands of the BMO Stadium took advantage of to jump onto the field from one of the stands and start running at full speed with the illusion of reaching Messi and taking a photo with the player or at least being able to touch him.
However, he did not count on the skill of Messi's bodyguard, a highly trained and capable individual to safeguard the integrity of the Argentine forward, who regardless of the fact that the fan did not represent a major threat to the player, must fulfill his duty.
In images shared on social media, we can see the moment when Yassine Cheuko, the name of Messi's employee, starts a race worthy of Usain Bolt and manages to reach the fan in time to subdue him professionally, without hurting him, and removing him from the field.
