Patrick Mahomes and Lionel Messi shared a warm embrace ahead of Inter Miami’s MLS clash with Sporting Kansas City on Saturday night.
Mahomes, his wife Brittany and Chiefs head coach Andy Reid were all among the crowd for the game at Arrowhead Stadium – the home of NFL giants.
As kick-off approached on Saturday, a video emerged showing Messi and his teammates walking in the bowels of the stadium.
They passed an open doorway, where Mahomes stood alongside Reid. Luis Suarez walked on by but Messi stopped to shake hands and hug the Super Bowl champion.
The quarterback also met with several Inter Miami players – including youngster Benjamin Cremaschi – on the field before the game.
