Since he moved to the United States, he barely had the privilege of returning to the locker room with his match-worn jersey as he exchanged it on request from opponents, but the aftermath of the recent one was unexpected.

As spotted by Sportskeeda, he exchanged shirts with midfielder Dax McCarthyin the tunnel after winning the cup competition.

The overjoyed McCarthy uploaded three pictures from the night on his Instagram pageand requested to frame Messi's jersey and hang it over their bed from his wife.

The request was met with rejection as the wife responded, «No chance that's happening,» leaving the player utterly disappointed. He'd probably learn to deal with such issues privately next time.
