David Beckham wore a navy blazer with a white t-shirt. Victoria Beckham chose a black camisole paired with light-wash jeans and sunglasses, creating a minimalist look. Romeo and his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, sported Argentina national team jerseys, while Cruz wore a red striped shirt.

Beckham is the co-owner and president of Inter Miami, the club where Messi plays. In an interview, the former England international stated that Messi playing for Inter Miami is one of the greatest things in his life. Beyond the team's titles, Inter Miami's value surged to over one billion USD after three years of signing Messi.

Beckham previously played in MLS, transferring from Real Madrid to LA Galaxy in 2007. This transfer allowed him the opportunity to establish his own team upon retirement and was granted an MLS expansion slot for just 25 million USD. His only obstacle was the inability to establish a team in New York. Therefore, the English legend chose to establish Inter Miami in the American coastal city in 2018.

In addition to the Beckhams, singer Shakira was also present with her two sons. Messi previously appeared in the music video for "Dai Dai", the official song of the 2026 World Cup, performed by the Colombian artist.

On the field, Messi opened the scoring for Argentina, bringing his World Cup goal tally to 20. He also assisted the goal scored by Lisandro Martinez and contributed to the pressure that led to Diney's own goal. The captain scored in eight consecutive World Cup matches, a tournament record. Following their victory over Cape Verde, coach Lionel Scaloni's team will face Egypt in the round of 8 of the 2026 World Cup on 7/7.

David Beckham, 51 years old, played for clubs such as Manchester United, Real Madrid, and Paris Saint-Germain. Beckham was the captain of the England national team from 2000-2006, retiring in 2013 at the age of 38. He made guest appearances in several films, including Goal, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., King Arthur: Legend of the Sword, and Deadpool 2. Beckham is also a symbol of masculine elegance in fashion.

Lionel Messi, 39 years old, was born in Argentina. He played football from a young age, with his talent discovered by FC Barcelona. Messi is one of the greatest players of all time, with eight Ballon d'Or awards, four Champions League titles, 10 La Liga domestic championships, one FIFA World Cup title, and numerous other individual accolades and achievements.
