The star of Inter Miami, Lionel Messi, and his wife Antonela Roccuzzo were seen in the Kisscam Coldplay during a recent concert at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida.
This time, there was no fun business, since the lovely couple avoided any disastrous criticism similar to what happened with the former Astronomer CEO earlier this month.

Messi and Roccuzzo smiled at the full house that encouraged them both while they were shown in the Jumbotron. The main singer of Coldplay, Chris Martin, calmed Messi and called him the “athlete number 1 of all time.”
Messi’s appearance occurred in the midst of controversy in Major League Soccer.
Messi and his teammate at Inter Miami, Jordi Alba, were suspended by a match last week after they decided to skip the All-Star of the Major Leagues, which included a match against the MX League stars of Mexico. Messi did not play in the middle of a full schedule in the United States and abroad while Alba was dealing with an earlier injury.

Any player who does not participate in the game of stars without the League’s approval is not eligible in his club’s next game.
“I know that Lionel Messi loves this league,” said MLS Commissioner Don Garber. “I don’t think there is a player, or anyone, who has done more for Major League Soccer than Messi. I understand, respect and admire his commitment to Inter Miami, and respect his decision.
“Unfortunately, we have a long data policy regarding the participation in the game of stars, and we had to enforce it. It was a very difficult decision.”
The owner of the Inter Miami team, Jorge Mas, described the “draconian” rule.
