Messi fans only were able to catch a brief glimpse of their favourite player after paying expensive tickets.
Lionel Messi’s first visit to India since 2011, in the form of a ‘GOAT’ Tour visiting Kolkata, Hyderabad, Mumbai and New Delhi, participating in friendly matches and other fan events, turned into chaos on Saturday at Kolkata’s Salt Lake, with riots and arrests. Fans were left disappointed after paying tickets worth around 4,500 rupees, or 42 euros -and some paid twice that much- and barely catching a glimpse at the Argentinian footballer in a shorter than expected appearance.
