    DID YOU KNOW?

    Argentine streamer 'La Cobra' has emulated the efforts of his fellow countryman during a boxing exhibition in the Spanish capital put together by Ibai Llanos. He was awarded the win in his meeting with Guanyar, allowing him to grab a Barcelona jersey and remind Madridistas of a day that they would rather forget.

  • WHAT NEXT?

    Plenty of jeers were aimed in the direction of Ibai, but there were also cheers. Messi left Spanish football in 2021, when making his way to Paris Saint-Germain as a free agent, and is now plying his trade in MLS with Inter Miami – becoming the most decorated player of all-time while in the United States.
