Leo Messi makes history on Instagram beating the famous viral egg

Messi has not only made history on the soccer field, but he is also doing it off the pitch. The photograph that he shared on the Instagram social network celebrating the achievement of the World Cup has just become the photo with the most likes in history with more than 57 million likes in just over a day.

"I dreamed of it so many times, I wanted it so much that I haven't fallen yet, I can't believe it", this is what the Argentine star wrote before thanking his family and all those who have helped him in the World Cup. Without a doubt, it will be one of the photos that will go down in the history of the king of sports.

At that time he was on the shoulders of his great friend Sergio 'Kun' Agüero. Surrounded by players, family members, coaching staff and journalists, he showed the World Cup to the Argentine fans who dyed the Lusail stands in albiceleste.

He said goodbye in the publication stating that "we are seeing each other very soon...". A reception in style in his native country, in which this Tuesday has been decreed as a national holiday so that all citizens can go out to celebrate the title in the streets.

The photo that held the record for likes on Instagram was that of a simple chicken egg. Yes, an egg. This account called 'World record egg' was part of a strategy to make visible the importance of mental health and has almost 56 million 'likes'.

This marketing campaign, funded by the streaming service Hulu, was completed during the 2019 Super Bowl with a 30-second ad from the organization Mental Health America.

The expectation that was created by finding out what was hidden inside the egg is similar to what the Argentine team has received during this World Cup. Thousands of people have followed the team's flight since it took off from Qatar en route to Ezeiza Airport, with a stopover in Rome.

Once they landed on Argentine land this Tuesday, the madness of the final that was experienced on Sunday has come to nothing with the reception of the thousands of fans who have taken to the streets to celebrate a World Cup 36 years later.
