BALLON D'OR
Messi tells Spanish streamer, “I’m not going to answer you anymore”
At the Ballon d’Or ceremony, Ibai Llanos tried to ask winner Lionel Messi some things, but he joked he’s “still angry” about a conversation he made public.
Lionel Messi won his eighth Ballon d’Or on Monday after a year that saw him lead the Argentina national team to World Cup victory. During the ceremony, Spanish streamer Ibai Llanos interviewed Messi, but he told him he’s “still angry with him”.
“Thank you, I’m still angry with you. I didn’t like what you did the other day. I sent you a message and you read it publicly,” said Messi. “I answered you in good spirits and you published everything, I am not going to answer you anymore.”
It was clear the conversation was a joke between the two and in the end, Messi was happy to speak to Llanos about the beautiful night.
