DJ Khaled’s young kid was soothed by Lionel Messi before his first Inter Miami debut on Tuesday, as the soccer icon walked out with him as a mascot before kickoff.

Asahd, 7, began crying when he stood in front of Messi in the team lineup, perhaps due to the commotion that greeted the team as they stepped out onto the field at the DRV PNK Stadium.

Messi saw and checked on young Asahd, who gave Messi a thumbs up as he regained his composure.

DJ Khaled later uploaded a video of Messi holding his son’s hand as he walked him out onto the pitch before the game began, writing, ‘I’m very proud of my son!’ ‘God bless @leomessi!!!’

While Messi was meek before kickoff, he quickly rҽvҽalҽd his merciless streak once the game began.

He scored twice in the first 22 minutes to help his new Inter Miami squad defeat Atlanta United 4-0.

His first goal was assisted by Sergio Busquets, as he raced through on goal, Һit the post with his initial attempt, and then scored with the rebound.

When Atlanta failed to clear a pass into the penalty area, he scored his second goal. Then, after halftime, new teammate Robert Taylor scored twice to seal the game.

Messi played 78 minutes in his team’s second game as he works to regain his health.

On Tuesday, DJ Khaled was joined by other celebs including P Diddy and Camilla Cabello at Miami’s DRV PNK Stadium for Messi’s second game.
