Messi's number 1 fan: Carla Miranda shared a photograph on social media of the spectacular tattoo of the star's face on her left thigh

In the run-up to the 2018 World Cup qualifier which Argentina played last week in Chile, Leo Messi was in for quite the surprise when a passionate Chilean fan pulled up her shorts and showed him some leg.

Carla Miranda shared a photograph on social media of the spectacular tattoo of the star's face on her left thigh. She was intent on meeting the Argentina player in person and booked a room in the same hotel as the 'Albiceleste' team to make her dream come true.
