Disappointed Fans Vandalise Salt Lake Stadium After Messi Exits Early
Messi, who is in India as part of his GOAT Tour, made only a brief appearance here at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan. Expectations of a memorable encounter quickly unravelled when the Argentine superstar was forced to cut short his lap of honour due to an uncontrollable surge in the crowd. Frustration boiled over, with bottles being thrown, prompting security officials to hasten his departure.
Many spectators, including those who had paid premium prices for tickets, complained that they never managed to see Messi—neither directly nor on the stadium’s giant screens, despite waiting for hours. The heavy security cordon and the presence of a large entourage of politicians and dignitaries further restricted visibility, increasing frustration among the crowd.
