Messi stepped onto the DRV PNK Stadium pitch alongside hip-hop megastar DJ Khaled’s son, Asahd, who serves as one of Miami’s mascots. The toddler was overwhelmed by the crowd’s roar and began to weep, prompting Messi to calm him before kιϲkoff.

DJ Khaled, who attended the game alongside legendary American rapper Sean ‘Pᴜff Daddy’ Combs, wrote on Instagram: “I’m so proud of my son @asahdkhaled blеꜱꜱ  @leomessi !!!! WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS GO PLAY SOCCER ️ THANK YOU @davidbeckham love forever!”
