During a friendly match between Inter Miami and Independiente del Valle, a fan invaded the field with the intention of taking a selfie with Lionel Messi. The incident occurred in the final moments of the match when the fan approached Messi from behind, causing both to fall to the ground as security attempted to intervene. Earlier in the match, a couple of other fans had successfully taken selfies with the World Cup champion, but this particular invasion ended dramatically as the fan acted with greater speed.

The incident caused a temporary pause in the match as security personnel worked to restore order amidst the unexpected influx of fans onto the pitch. Despite the chaos caused by the fan's actions, Messi appeared unfazed, getting back up without showing any signs of anger or discomfort. His calm demeanor in the face of the situation reflects his experience with such public attention, both on and off the field.

Ultimately, after the disruption, the match was able to resume and conclude. This event highlights the ongoing fascination with Messi, who remains a global sports icon, and the sometimes unpredictable interactions that occur in high-profile sporting events.
