Image of Messi stepping on Barcelona shirt

On the morning of March 17, the moment Lionel Messi stepped on Barcelona's shirt during Inter Miami's 2-1 win over Atlanta United caused a lot of controversy on social media.

Messi's eye-catching image.

In the viral video , when Messi left the dressing room to walk onto the field, a Barcelona shirt appeared at his feet. This was actually an unintentional incident, not an intentional action from the Argentine superstar. The shirt was thrown down from the stands just as the former PSG star turned away, leaving him unaware and accidentally stepping on it.

The image immediately attracted attention and generated mixed opinions. Some people thought Messi was disrespecting the team that brought him to the top, while many others believed this was just an unfortunate situation.

Despite criticism, many Barcelona fans spoke up to defend Messi. During more than 2 decades with the club, he won 10 La Liga titles, 4 Champions Leagues and scored a total of 672 goals, becoming the greatest player in the club's history. With what he has been through, there is no reason for Messi to intentionally disrespect Barcelona.

In fact, Leo also glanced at the fan who threw the Barcelona shirt on the field and expressed his dissatisfaction. Messi himself has repeatedly affirmed his love for the club, even expressing his desire to play at Nou Camp after the stadium completes its renovation in 2025.

At Mercedes-Benz Stadium on the morning of March 17, Messi scored a masterpiece to help Inter Miami defeat Atlanta United 2-1 in round 4 of MLS 2025. Messi won the ball right in front of the penalty area, then skillfully eliminated an opposing defender before chipping the ball past goalkeeper Brad Guzan.

The victory helped Inter Miami rise to the top of the rankings with 10 points after 4 matches, surpassing Philadelphia Union (9 points).
