Little Venezuelan kid escapes stands to hug Messi at full time, Leo's reaction caught on camera

Easily one of the cutest things you'll see today.

After Argentina's 3-1 win against Venezuela in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers, little Venezuelan boy managed to escape the stands and ran onto the football pitch.

The kid was wearing a PSG jersey with the number 30 on the back – clearly, he wanted to meet his idol, Leo Messi.

Instead of paying no attention to the young fan, Leo hugged the kid under the fans' applause.

Messi scored no goals in Friday's encounter but produced a solid outing nevertheless, making 3 key passes and creating 2 chances.
