With the words of the Mexican-American, the greatest benefit of the whole theme was his son, Santiago “Bebote” Giménez, who stayed as he remembered for the two athletes, which was reflected when he was a visitor and requested a house signed by Lionel Messi himself. 

“Lio Messi had an attitude that I will never forget. I remember it was in Ecuador, I hadn’t played, we came back and the team utility gave him the shirt, because I wasn’t going to play, and when we were together, I told him a lot about my son (Santiago), he came up and gave me the autographed shirt for him,” Giménez recalled.
Likewise, the now coach of Cancun FC, referred that this apparel was not only in the hands of Santiago, but is in a very special place for him. “That T-shirt made her up and hung on one of the walls of the house, it was something that gave me a lot of happiness, I’m grateful to Messi,” she said.” Back in Quito, Ecuador, Leo maintained different extraordinary attitudes with me, that moment when we both formed a nice friendship. The moment he came to Mexico, he gave me his phone and many more things, which I lived with the day has been unique,” the Chaco Giménez finished. Another aspect that can be remembered between the two selected, was given on the court of the Estadio Azul in 2011, where Lio had a special match called “Friends of Messi vs Stars of Mexico” among them appeared the “Chaco” Giménez but being part of the stars of Mexico.
