The SKIMS founder, 42, shared a sweet clip of 7-year-old Saint and a friend meeting his sports idol Messi, 36, as they watched the Inter Miami player’s first game at DRV PNK Stadium in Florida on Friday.
In a clip shared on her Instagram Story, Kardashian filmed Saint with a friend standing on the pitch to the side as Messi approached while making his exit. “Messi! Messi! Messi!,” they were heard calling.
Messi then stopped to take a photo with Saint’s friend and afterwards, began taking one with Saint. “Best day of their entire lives,” Kardashian captioned the clip.

Kardashian said she brought son Saint — who she shares with ex Kanye West — to the Inter Miami game as he is “obsessed with soccer.”
“I will do anything for my babies,” Kardashian told Major League Soccer. “So I traveled the world. We do soccer trips. All summer, we’re going to different exhibition games.”
Several Hollywood A-listers joined Kardashian in attending the Inter Miami game, including Lebron James, Serena Williams and David’s wife Victoria Beckham, who showed up to support.

The soccer match was a success as Messi scored a 94th-minute free kick to break a 1-to-1 tie with the Mexico City-based Cruz Azul that propelled his team to a 2-to-1 victory, Yahoo Sports reported.
The match was Inter Miami’s first in the Leagues Cup, a monthlong competition between Major League Soccer and Liga MX sides. Messi and Inter Miami’s next match is on July 25 against Atlanta United.
