Inter Miami’s social media post congratulating Lionel Messi shows the wrong Ballon d’Or trophy!
The official X account, formerly Twitter, of Inter Miami published a video congratulating the Argentine on winning his eighth Ballon d’Or; However, a glaring error was noticed when they used the wrong trophy in the clip.
It was a pretty embarrassing moment for the MLS team, especially considering the trophy on display hasn’t been used since 2015. Either way, it’s a classy congratulations from the Herons, and despite the flaw, nothing can take away from the moment of celebration.
To make it even more memorable, David Beckham, co-owner of Inter Miami and former England star, was the guest of honor to present the trophy to the Argentine on stage.
