“This still shocks me”- Fans’ reaction to Lionel Messi and Sergio Ramos incident before PSG vs Bayern
The Argentine superstar, Lionel Messi, and Sergio Ramos had an awkward but funny moment before the UEFA Champions League 1st leg round of 16 clashes which was held at the Parc des Princes.
As the Paris Saint Germain (PSG) players were warming up for the match, Messi was in need of Ramos’ training bib. The Argentine took his own bib off and handed it over to the Spaniard.
A newly-found friendship
Ramos, when asked for a bib, came forward to hug Messi and embraced him. But Messi told him that he wanted a training bib, then the Spanish defender smiled and handed him one. Fans found the incident funny. Some said that Sergio Ramos always had a soft corner for Lionel Messi.
There were days when Ramos and Messi were each other’s rivals. They shared rivalry when they were not in PSG but in La Liga with Barcelona and Real Madrid. But as they appeared in the same club, the bond between the two seems more like that of friends.
It also looks like a sign of reconciliation of both the players and their newly found friendship in PSG.
Here are some of the reactions from fans:
