Lionel Messi
's mother
,
María Celia Cuccittini
, went to dinner at
Via Appia
, a historic pizzeria in
Rosario
, and the local's social networks echoed the presence of the woman who brought the captain of the
Argentine National Team
into the world , the maximum responsible for giving the country the third World Cup in its history.
"Smile! The mother of the best in the world came to eat pizza. Thank you Celia for the good vibes," they proudly posted along with a photo that shows the typical behind-the-scenes of this type of establishment, along with the cooks and one of the managers of the place, all smiling.
There is joy and logical disorder after an intense day of work.
But of course, in the networks there is a place for everything, and especially if it is about questions.
It is that in addition to RTs and little hearts celebrating Celia's presence in the place, and absolute sentences describing it as
"the best pizzeria in the city"
, there were others (the least) that stopped at the lack of cleanliness in the kitchen, mentioning alleged bromatological infractions.
"For those who
think without knowing
. We produce buns, they rest until night. The order enters and they are stretched on flour everywhere. And it cannot be controlled, that is why we cannot offer products without TACC either," they explained from the pizzeria, a time the wave of negative comments became insistent.
"We invite you to visit the kitchen whenever you want," they told a Twitter user who criticized them.
And they added: "If you see flour on the floor of a pizzeria for the first time, I tell you that it is because 99 percent of pizzerias use pre-pizzas and we work with fresh buns that are stretched on marble and flour all night."
"We invite you to visit the kitchen before the service and especially after
a record night
like yesterday. If we uploaded the photo, it is because we are totally calm about what you see and the qualifications," they told another, clarifying in passing that at the time of the image
the kitchen was already closed
.
Apart from this unexpected controversy, Celia continues to enjoy the affection of everyone in the Messi's hometown.
An affection that was always there but in recent weeks or months it became much more marked after Leo managed to get rid of the thorn of celebrating his first titles with his most beloved shirt, the light blue and white of the Argentine National Team.
And to the critics,

"It hurt to the last little hair, but I had faith that God was going to grant me this miracle

There the goalkeeper Emiliano 'Dibu' Martínez appeared, to become a hero between the last play of extra time, the shot saved against Coman and the mental duel that he beat Aurélien Tchouaméni, who threw the ball wide.
"He always saves us. I tell Dibu that he is a genius, the best," he
assured.
Those were the worst moments of the most emotional final in the history of the World Cups, due to the dominance of Argentina for 70 minutes, the reaction of France, the ups and downs in dominance and the chances of danger that occurred until the last minute of extra time. .
And there, the thought of Lionel Messi's mother was that of everyone:
"He had faith, always, he said that he could not happen again
. "
