Changes Messi and his new (and temporary) house: 15,000 euros a day, 24-hour chef, driver...
Styles The life of Messi and Roccuzzo: without 'parties', 'great cars' or mansions
The Argentine star continues to make history.
This Sunday,
Leo Messi
(35) achieved
the only title that was missing
from his extensive record: the World Cup.
The Argentine National Team defeated the French on penalties, thus achieving their third World Cup in a heart-stopping match that made the fans suffer until the last second.
"I wanted to close my career with this,
I can't ask for anything anymore.
Thank God he gave me everything. Closing almost my career like this, it's impressive. After this, what will there be? This is
anyone
's little dream
"La Pulga said after lifting the trophy.
"I knew that at some point
God was going to give it to me
and I don't know why I had a presentiment and felt that it was going to be this. Once again it made me feel enormously happy."

How could it be otherwise, the footballer celebrated the victory by melting into
an emotional hug
with
Antonela Rocuzzo
(34), his wife, and their
three children together:
Thiago (10), Mateo (7) and Ciro (4).
And it is that without a doubt, the young woman, originally from Rosario, is
the talisman
that accompanies the footballer in his successful career.
Since they met when
they were barely nine and eight years old,
the model, known for being the daughter of the owners of the Único supermarket chain, and the 10th of the Argentine team, have become
inseparable
.

The marriage became known through her cousin,
Lucas Scaglia, a friend of the footballer
since childhood, who was then playing in the lower categories of Newell's.
From there, the two began to
exchange love letters
until they reached their
teens
, when they had to separate.
Although only physically.
In the year 2000,
Leo Messi moved to Spain
to try his luck with FC Barcelona, but the two kept in touch despite the fact that she had
a relationship with another boy
for three years.
The tragedy that united them forever
Four years later,
the death of Rocuzzo's best friend
in a traffic accident, caused Messi and Antonela to
meet again
and never separate again.
She had just finished her Bachelor's Degree in Humanities and Social Sciences, and
was beginning to study Dentistry
at the National University of Rosario, which she dropped out to later enroll in Social Communication.
In 2009 it was the footballer who made his relationship
with Anto official, as he affectionately calls her, on the TV3 program
Hat Trick Barça
.
She was asked "do you have a girlfriend?", and Messi replied: "Yes, I have a girlfriend. She is in Argentina."

A year later, and just a few weeks before the World Cup in South Africa,
Antonela headed for Spain
after deciding that
she did not want to continue studying,
and settled in the house that the soccer player had in Castelldefels.
Just two years later, the couple
welcomed their first child,
Thiago, and in 2015, their second, Mateo.
On June 30, 2017, Argentines said "yes, I want"
at the City Center Rosario luxury hotel
, in their hometown.
The ceremony was attended
by well-known faces from the football scene,
such as Luis Suárez (35) and Sofía Balbi (33), Cesc Fábregas (35) and Daniella Semaan (47), Gerard Piqué (35), who went with Shakira, Ángel Di Maria ( 34), Neymar (30) or Kun Agüero (34).
In 2018, the couple introduced
their third child,
Ciro, into society.
Since the Argentine star signed for Paris Saint Germain, the couple and their three children have lived in the town of Neuilly-sur-Seine,
in the Paris metropolitan area
.
There also live colleagues of the former Barça footballer, such as Di Maria or Leo Paredes (28).
