Messi-Lautaro, the «like» to the post infuriates the fans of Barcellona- Corriere.it

One “like”, one “like”, but that was enough for the revolt of the Barcelona fans, one step away from elimination in the Champions League group after the 3-3 of the Camp Nou against Inter (12 October), against their greatest idol: Lionel Messi. A simple “like”, a click and the Blaugrana world of the Pulce, today at PSG, has turned upside down. The facts: after the Nerazzurri’s wonderful night at Camp Nou, Lautaro Martinez – one of the protagonists of Simone Inzaghi’s team with a goal and an assist – posted a message on Instagram: “Heart, personality, humility #forzainter”. Which has almost reached 500 thousand likes. Among these, none other than that of Messi, teammate of the national team and friend of the Inter forward.

A “like” misinterpreted by the Blaugrana fans, frustrated and disappointed by how the match went. Of course, maybe Leo could be silent, he could write to Lautaro in private, but in the era of social media – where everything is made public in the streets – Messi expressed his thoughts, which were immediately received and transmitted to the world. Between Argentina, in just over a month involved in the World Cup in Qatar, and Barcelona (rumors of his return to Catalonia are insistent), La Pulce has chosen love for his homeland. Infuriating the Barcelona fans, who have already forgotten his feats around the globe with the Blaugrana shirt. And Lionel was attacked on social media: “Shameless traitor” or “he’s just a mercenary.” Finally: “he Judas”. And all for a like from a friend.
