Specifically, after receiving his 8th Golden Ball , Messi had a “quite intense” conversation with Ibai Llanos on live air. The reason is that this streamer had previously published the text messages between him and the Argentine superstar.
“Ibai, I’m officially mad at you. I don’t like the fact that you made our messages public for everyone to see. You don’t respect privacy at all. Now I won’t answer any of your questions anymore”, Messi scolded Ibai Llanos.
At this time, Ibai Llanos’s broadcast had up to 700,000 viewers. Everyone commented “haha…” or dropped smiley face emojis to express their delight at Messi’s actions.
However, this is just a fun scolding from him because viewers all know that Messi and Ibai Llanos are quite close to each other in real life. The two have been good friends since Messi was still playing for Barcelona . When he moved to PSG, Ibai Llanos also came to this club to chat with Messi.
Even Ibai Llanos was one of the few people to talk to Messi after he received his 8th Golden Ball.
However, what few people expected was that the clip was later nominated in the “Anger of the Year” category at the upcoming ESLAND awards ceremony. This is an annual event held from 2022 to honor content creators in Spain.
From January 8, Messi fans can vote for their idol in this strange category. The ESLAND awards ceremony will take place on February 17 in Andorra.
