Messi wants meet afghan boy

That's a heartwarming story!

You're referring to the famous photo of a young Afghan boy, Zabihullah, who was photographed by Steve McCurry in 1984. The boy's piercing green eyes and striking gaze captured the attention of the world, and he became known as the "Afghan Girl."

Lionel Messi, the Argentine professional soccer player, has indeed expressed his admiration for the Afghan Girl and has wanted to meet her. In 2012, Messi even tweeted about the photo, saying, "I've always been fascinated by the story of the Afghan Girl. I would love to meet her one day."

In 2016, Messi's wish came true when he met the Afghan Girl, now known as Sharbat Gula, at a refugee camp in Kabul. The meeting was arranged by the National Geographic Society, which had been searching for the Afghan Girl for years.

During their meeting, Messi gave Sharbat Gula a signed jersey and a pair of soccer cleats. Sharbat Gula, who was then 41 years old, was overjoyed to meet her idol and thanked Messi for his kindness.

The meeting was a heartwarming moment that brought together two people from different parts of the world, united by their shared humanity and a sense of wonder.
