This Monday, November 29, the Paris Saint Germain striker received the Ballon d'Or for the 7th time at the Châtelet theater in Paris. He appeared with his wife, Antonella, and three boys. For the occasion the Messi clan was matched.
Not one, not two, not three, but seven Ballons d'Or: that's what the Argentinian international's list now counts. Monday, November 29 was the 65th edition of the Ballon d'Or ceremony, of which Lionel Messi was one of the favorites. The player once again wins this award, the ultimate award for a football player. It was out of the question to experience this event alone: his whole little tribe was by his side. Once the verdict fell, the Messi took the pose, as a family, in front of an audience of photographers.

If Antonella, his wife, wore a long gold lamé dress, his three sons, Thiago, Mateo and Ciro, matched their father. Lionel Messi and his boys indeed appeared in three-piece suits comprising a black sequined blazer jacket, a white shirt, a satin waistcoat and a black bow tie. The only difference: it was in white sneakers that the children walked the red carpet, unlike the former Barcelonan, who preferred to bet on a pair of black loafers.
A stylistic ritual
It's not the first time that Lionel Messi and his children have shared the same wardrobe: in December 2019, for his 6th coronation, they were already dressed identically , in a patterned tie suit. Then one year old, the youngest Ciro, was missing. This time, all together, the Messi once again scored in the top corner of the unforgettable style.
