Who was that Inter Miami star?

Leonardo Campana, a forward for Inter, shared his excitement by asking for more tickets for the event on the team's WhatsApp group, demonstrating the team's cohesion and friendship.

Talking to the reporters, Inter Miami defender DeAndre Yedlin recalled the instance and stated: 

On Sunday, Campana was looking for tickets, and he put it in the group chat if anybody has any,

I didn't even know whether Messi was in the group chat yet, but he popped up straightaway and said, 'How many do you need though?' Straightaway like that.

From there, I was just like, 'Woah!' You know what I mean. Like straight off the bat, they may have known each other for three days or something. But to show that generosity is a great fresh example of how (Leo) is.

A sold-out stadium of nearly 20,000 spectators did not feat the severe rain and lightning as they came down to see the historic moment. Lionel Messi's family joined him on the pitch after receiving his No. 10 jersey, and they posed for pictures while fireworks lit up the night sky, making it an unforgettable scenario.
