ItalyDuring the Argentina national football team's travel between matches at the FIFA World Cup, players including Lionel Messi were subjected to strict U.S. airport security checks. A video captured the process, showing that all members of the team had their luggage and bodies scanned for explosives and drugs. Messi was personally searched by an agent, seated on a chair on the tarmac, and checked thoroughly, including his feet. The incident was met with humor by Messi, who is used to being approached for selfies and autographs rather than undergoing such security procedures. After completing the checks, the team departed for Miami to prepare for their upcoming game against Cape Verde.
