Lionel Messi’s bodyguard isn’t kidding!
Fans rushed onto the pitch at Arrowhead Stadium during Saturday night’s match between Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami and Sporting Kansas City, interrupting the game.
Well, that fan was clearly a supporter of Messi, who is on his way to becoming a soccer legend. However, his glory didn’t last long as Messi’s bodyguard, Yassin Chouko, sprinted towards the fans from the sideline, pulling Messi away from his boss. And frankly, this scene made Chuko a star. Because the bodyguard had a chance to show off his elite speed and top-notch defensive skills.

There were actually two such incidents, one of which involved a minor. Especially when it comes to minors, a bodyguard ran up to Messi’s safety, had him take a picture with The Goat (very cool), and then had security escort him off the pitch.
The first scene is:

I have to say… As a Lionel Messi supporter, an Inter Miami fan, and a South Florida fan, I am really happy about this protection of the great Messi.
But the fact that Messi is currently in the league 2.5 year, $150 million contract, you can be sure that bodyguards are well paid. If so, he would do better.
And he did it brilliantly.
