Antonella Roccuzzo, the wife of Argentine star Lionel Messi, was exposed to an "embarrassing" situation while celebrating Inter Miami's qualification for the US Cup final at the expense of Cincinnati.

After the end of the match, with Inter Miami winning and qualifying for the final, Antonella entered the field to congratulate her husband, and appeared in a video clip walking towards former Barcelona player Jordi Alba, and was about to kiss him, believing that he was her husband.

And at the last moment, when Antonella realized that he was not her husband, but rather Alba, she moved away from him before trying to remedy the matter and hugging him quickly, according to the "caughtoffside" website.

Inter Miami booked its seat in the final after beating Cincinnati on penalties 5-4 after a 3-3 tie in the original and extra time.
