Mateo Messi, the 8-year-old son of football legend Lionel Messi, is taking the world by storm with his impressive football skills.

Mateo Messi scored 5 goals in a match for Inter Miami’s youth team, and a video of his performance has quickly gone viral on social media.

Exceptional Football Prowess

In the video, Mateo showcases incredible ball control and dribbling skills, leaving defenders in his wake and drawing comparisons to his legendary father. He netted five goals, including a stunning free kick.

Donning the iconic number 10 jersey, just like his father, Mateo has been making a name for himself representing Inter Miami Academy in youth tournaments across the United States. This is not the first time one of Messi’s sons has impressed on the football pitch. His older son, Thiago, 11, recently captained the Inter Miami U12 team to victory in the Easter International Cup earlier this month.



A Unique Personality

While his father and brother are known for their calm demeanor, Mateo is famous for his playful antics and unapologetic expression of emotions in front of the media.

In 2022, Mateo caught the attention of many when he was scolded twice by his mother for jumping on seats and throwing lollipops into the stands at fans during the World Cup. He also threw a tantrum when his father didn’t pay attention to him during Argentina’s World Cup victory celebrations.

A Promising Future

With his talent and passion for football, Mateo is expected to follow in his father’s footsteps and become a football star in the future.

Many fans believe Mateo has the potential to become one of the best players in the world.
