Each body: Yamal has cancelled Messi, the two have no intersection but the encounter will eventually come

On May 23, the Daily Sports Daily published an article introducing the story behind the photo of Messi baptizing Yamal and the relationship between the two parties involved.

Yamar showed a meaningful jersey at the Barcelona Triple Crown Celebration Parade, wearing a T-shirt with a classic photo of Messi bathing himself as an infancy. This charity calendar photo taken by Daily Sports photographer Joan Monfort in December 2007 has become an iconic picture in football.

Messi and Yamal have very little intersection since then. When Messi was wearing the No. 10 jersey, he met Yamal who was in the youth training camp at the training base. Since Yamal was promoted to the first team, the two have never met again, and have never even communicated over phone or video, but this encounter will eventually come.

In the digital age, social media has become the bond between players and fans, and this is no exception to the genius of the generation. It is interesting that Yamal, who had followed Messi on Instagram, recently cancelled his follower, and the young player's account was not seen in Messi's follower list. However, this detail has nothing to do with the grand purpose, and I believe the two parties involved will not care.
