1st October
Leo's last game

📍Barcelona, Spain 🇪🇸
➟ ▫️Camp Nou Stadium


TODAY WAS THE last official football game that Leo Messi will play and that hurt many Cules hearts. the stadium were already packed of fans , waiting for the game to begin and for the footballer to step foot onto the pitch.

everywhere , Cules look sad and nervous , not ready for his last game ever. just 1 more hour and the game will begin. Camp Nou is filled to the limit , some fans standing outside of the stadium , wanting to see their favourite footballer.

every Cule around the world , whether it was day or night , warm or cold , were either standing in front of the television, or outside as they stared at the billboard , or listening to their radio as they waited for the announcement.

fans were begging guards to let them in but they didn't get any answer. there were atleast more than 200 more people standing outside of the stadium.

Emily and her family arrived at the football stadium , her eyes widening as she saw the many people and she stayed close to Antonella.

Jorge had flew out his wife and his other children to the stadium and Louise and David joined them too.

they arrived the night before, after the press conference and Emily had never been happier.

they were all now entering the stadium , bodyguards protecting them from the fans and journalists.

once inside , Emily's eyes widened when she saw how many people were there. Barcelona was playing this game against Real Madrid and Leo couldn't be happier since that were their rival team.

as soon as they were at the top , Emily could get a better view of everything. she took her seat next to Ciro and Celia and took a few photos and videos and posted them on her Instagram story.

she was amazed by how many people loved and supported her father. everywhere , fans were dressed in both Barcelona t-shirts , and Argentina t-shirts.

there were cardboards of his face everywhere and a huge banner. both teams' fans were in the stands , but the Messi fans stood out the most.

"little Messi" she heard and smiled widely before turning around.

"Ney" she said excitedly and engulfed him in a hug. all the games were canceled for 1st October since a lot of football players were at the Camp Nou for Leo's retirement.

"I missed you" he spoke and kissed the top of her hair as the pulled away. "I missed you too" she said and greeted Sonia , Rafaella , his parents and Davi.

she looked around to see a lot of other professional footballers and their families. players like Sergio Aguero ,  Cristiano Ronaldo , Kevin De Bruyne , Virgil Van Dijk , Jude Bellingham , David Beckham , Zinedine Zidane  , Ronaldinho and their families were the people that she recognised there.

the whole Argentina International Team were there with their families and Leo's close friends. they were all there to support him.

the fans were loud as they waited impatiently for the game to start and started to get nervous when the line-ups were announced.
