Messi reacts with a “like” after Eldense win
MARCA reports that the Argentine reacted on social media after Eldense beat Sporting Gijón 0-1 at El Molinón.
Argentina’s Leo Messi was said to have followed the match at El Molinón between Sporting Gijón and Eldense, which finished 0-1. As MARCA explains, neither the time difference nor his commitments with Inter Miami prevented him from checking the result.
The gesture after 0-1
In the lead-up to the reaction, Eldense posted that the game (matchday five) in Gijón ended with a narrow win, decided by a goal from Javi Martínez. After that, Messi added a “like” to the post, which MARCA frames as a clear nod toward the club from Elda.
The newspaper adds that this small public sign has boosted the confidence of the Eldense fans, who are hoping that Messi’s involvement with the Alicante side becomes reality “soon.”
In short, while Messi’s club season runs in the MLS, MARCA highlights that his attention to Segunda matches — especially one as tough as the one at El Molinón — has resonated strongly with supporters.
