Lionel Messi’s youngest son, Ciro, was clearly excited for Argentina’s World Cup match against Poland, but not without a little scolding from his mother, Antonela Roccuzzo. The four-year-old was spotted jumping on seats and running around the suite section at Stadium 974, drawing a stern look from Roccuzzo as she tried to get him to settle down.

Despite the initial commotion, the fun continued as a member of the Messi entourage painted Ciro’s face while Antonela captured the moments on camera. Eventually, the family settled in to support Messi and the Argentine team as they went on to win the match 2-0, advancing to the knockout stage.
During the game, Messi had a chance to score but saw his penalty kick blocked by Poland’s goalkeeper, Wojciech Szczesny. Argentina took the lead shortly after halftime when midfielder Alexis Mac Allister scored with a low, first-time shot. Julian Alvarez then added a second goal in the 67th minute, sealing the victory.
