Rodrigo De Paul, midfielder of the American soccer club Inter Miami and the Argentina national team, supported Lionel Messi, whose father has died.

As Oxu.Az reports citing TASS, in the second-round match of the Leagues Cup, Inter Miami lost to Mexico's Monterrey with a score of 1:2. De Paul opened the scoring in the 32nd minute, after which he took off his jersey and displayed a shirt with the number ten and the name Messi. The Argentine forward himself did not take part in the game.

The death of 68-year-old Jorge Messi became known on August 8. The causes of the death of the father and agent of the eight-time Ballon d'Or winner have not been reported.
