The famous Lionel Messi ‘Bobo’ insult made another appearance during Argentina’s 1-0 win over Peru on Wednesday.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

La Albiceleste are on the brink of qualifying for the 2026 FIFA World Cup after their latest victory. Lautaro Martinez<\/a> scored the only goal of the game after 55 minutes.<\/p>\n

Lionel Scaloni’s side sit top of the South American standings after 12 matches on 25 points – five clear of nearest rivals Uruguay.<\/p>\n

Messi provided the pass for Martinez’s winner which in turn, set another record for the 37-year-old superstar. Nobody has more international assists to their name than the Argentine captain.<\/p>\n

However, that wasn’t the only talking point from the La Bombonera. Messi was involved in a scuffle with Peruvian defender Carlos Zambrano which resulted in a famous phrase resurfacing.<\/p>\n

Lionel Messi ‘Bobo’ Insult Aimed Towards Peru Defender<\/h2>\n

During the cagey affair in Buenos Aires, the Lionel Messi ‘Bobo’ catchphrase received some much needed airtime after almost two years.<\/p>\n

After a seemingly innocent coming together between Messi and Carlos Zambrano, the latter appeared to slap Argentina’s all-time record goalscorer.<\/p>\n

Messi – who is known for his fiery temper in recent years – responded by calling Zambrano a ‘Bobo’ (idiot). In full, Messi vehemently shouted at his rival: “What are you doing, idiot? What are you doing? What are you doing, fool?<\/em>”<\/p>\n
