Lionel Messi’s GOAT Tour began amid chaos and vandalism at the Salt Lake Stadium, but for former India players Dipendu Biswas and Syed Rahim Nabi, it still turned into the moment of a lifetime here on Saturday.
Biswas, who represented the Mohun Bagan Messi XI in the exhibition match against the Diamond Harbour Messi XI, was among the few who walked away with memories to cherish forever.
“Messi signed on the left side of my jersey, Suarez on the right, and Rodrigo De Paul in the centre,” Biswas told PTI, still visibly overwhelmed.
“He was all smiles. I was blessed to touch his magical left foot,” Dipendu, who is actually a decade older than Messi, stated.
