Footy fans were doing a double take when they thought Lionel Messi's wife was a bikini-clad WAG sharing a hot tub with his team-mate.
Inter Miami star Messi, 36, will have no doubt have returned home to his native Argentina to celebrate Christmas with his family given it's the MLS off season. But for a split second many thought other half Antonella Roccuzzo hadn't joined him.
That was after his Argentina colleague Lautaro Martinez uploaded a joint-Instagram post with his wife Agus Gandolfo on Christmas Eve. The pair were stood in a hot tub while holidaying in Suiza, Switzerland.
Facing side on, Agus bore a striking resemblance to Antonella, which had plenty of fans thinking Inter Milan striker Martinez had done the dirty on Messi. One commented: "I quickly saw the post and thought that was Antonella Roccuzzo."
"Looks like Antonella," argued a second, while a third echoed: "She is Anto, freaked me out." A fourth added: "I thought the same thing." And a fifth joked: "What is Antonella doing?"

"Bro I can't be the only one who thought it was Antonella," wrote a sixth, with a seventh replying: "For a moment I thought it was Antonella, but no!!!" An eighth posted: "Like if you thought it was the captain's girlfriend."
On closer inspection there are some notable differences between Agus and Antonella. They include the former having two-toned ombre hair, while the latter's is pure brunette.
