Lionel Messi appears on stage during ‘The Other Side of the Bed’ encore to rapturous applause in Beunos Aires

What with helping his side get their ailing World Cup qualifying campaign back on track thanks to a 2-1 win over fellow Copa America finalists Chile, Lionel Messi was spotted treating himself to a spot of escapism in the form of a play titled ‘The Other Side of the Bed’ in Buenos Aires last night.

What with being best pals with lead actor Nicolas Vasquez, the little Argentine genius was hauled up on stage during the casts encore.

Naturally he got quite the applause for….well, just being Lionel Messi we guess.

And rightfully so.
