Buenos Aires, January 2 (NA) – Lionel Messi caused a stir on social media by sharing an intimate video of his New Year's celebration with his family in the city of Funes, where his niece Morena can be seen singing during the festivities. According to the Argentine News Agency, the captain of the Argentine national team chose to spend the holidays in the country accompanied by his loved ones. After posting some images with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo and their three children, the Rosario native surprised everyone with a story that quickly went viral. In the video, Messi shows 18-year-old Morena Messi singing a cumbia song in front of her family. Morena is the daughter of Rodrigo Messi, the footballer's older brother, and Florencia Parisi, and has two younger brothers, Agustín and Benjamín. It has been reported that music is one of her great passions and it is not the first time she has dared to sing in front of a close audience. In fact, three years ago, a few days after the Argentine team's victory in the World Cup in Qatar, Messi attended his niece's 15th birthday party, where Morena also shone by singing an Emilia Mernes song—a scene that was widely commented on in their circle.
