Awkward Moment: Antonela Roccuzzo MISTAKES Inter Miami Teammate Jordi Alba for World Cup Winner

Following what looks to be Inter Miami's Leagues Cup triumph vs. Nashville, Messi's wife Antonela Roccuzzo went to congratulate her man with a hug and a kiss, only to realize it wasn't him. It was in fact Alba, which was realized as the pair's head moved toward one another.

It was Alba, which was realized as the pair's heads moved toward one another. Then, before any hug or extra affection could occur she realized it was Messi's ex-Barcelona teammate.

The left-back has made six appearances for Inter Miami and has a goal, along with two assists to his name.

He will be part of the away side hoping to start a climb from the base of the Eastern Conference standings in New Jersey on Saturday night.

Messi played 120 minutes on Wednesday night in Inter Miami's US Open Cup semifinal win on penalties over Cincinnati and afterward, coach Tata Martino suggested he needs to manage the minutes the superstar plays.

Inter Miami are last (15th) in the Eastern Conference and face off vs. The Red Bulls (11th) at 7.30 pm ET.
