By his side Lionel Messi where her fans are Newell’s Old Boys after the threats he received in the shooting attack at the supermarket of his wife, Antonella Roccuzzo.
Let’s remember that in the early hours of Thursday (02/03) hooded men “gassed” the supermarket gate with 14 bullets kept in Rosario by Antonella’s family, and a note was found there that read: “Messi, we are waiting for you. Yavkin is also a drug dealer, he’s not going to protect you».
So fans of Newell’s, the only team within the borders that Messi has worn, supported the 35-year-old with a banner on the pitch that read: “Leo you are the heart of a country that loves you, Newells is with you».
??“Leo, you’re the heart of a country that loves you. Newell’s is with you”
