Catalan sports paper El Mundo Deportivo claims that Barcelona player Lionel Messi dedicated his goal against Atlético Madrid last Saturday to one of his cousins.
Messi pointed at his teeth, which made some people believe that he dedicated the goal to his former team-mate Ronaldinho.
Before the game Messi had been talking with his cousin Emanuel Biancucci, a 20-year old midfielder who is playing for German second division team 1860 Munich and has been testing with Spanish third division club Terrassa.
Biancucci, whose brother Maxi plays for Brazilian club Flamengo, asked Messi to dedicate a goal to him if he would score that night. When Messi scored the 3-0, he dedicated the goal to his cousin by pointing at his teeth. Since childhood, Biancucci is - without any clear reason - called "Dientes" (Teeth) by his family and friends.
