Lionel Messi 'Partied With A Blonde Stripper', Pope Delighted

Lionel Messi finds himself on the front page of Argentinian magazine Pronto this week, with the headline 'The number 10 had a wild night in Las Vegas - The photos that jeopardize the marriage of Lionel Messi.'

Alongside the photo they say 'Lio and Antonella, the mother of his son Thiago, are going through a serious crisis today. She has found out that after the match he played in Chicago, he went to "Sin City" and partied with a blonde stripper. These are the compromising images that have been taken of him.'

We're not sure why but the Pope seems to be ecstatic about this news.
