Watch Lionel Messi Ignore Child Before World Cup Match; Was It Arrogance Or Honest Mistake? [POLL AND VIDEO]

Lionel Messi is one of the biggest soccer players in the world and made his debut during the 2014 World Cup this weekend. As the 26-year-old striker made his way through a tunnel to shake officials' hands a child approaches the star, extends his hand but is completely shunned. Imagine the feelings of this kid, a fan of the player that watches his games on tv every weekend and here was his moment to meet his idol, but got ignored. As it is Messi is heavily criticized for being arrogant, but to be fair it does look like he waves at someone before getting the officials. Some sites have cited that it might be that the player known as "La Pulga" ("The Flea") didn't see him because of the height difference, but Messi is already relatively short. POLL: Do you think it was arrogance on Messi's part or a pure an honest mistake? VOTE and WATCH the video down below!

Soccer fever has taken over the world and someone that has gotten infected by the fervor was Mickey Mouse, the lovable Disney character. In a new short titled "O Futebol Classico" ("The Soccer Classic") Mickey has traveled to Brazil to presence a match. All is well at the stadium, Mickey has all his gear to cheer on his team and finds a great spot to view the game. There is only one problem though, a giant pig sits right in front of him, blocking his sight and unable to see the match. He tries to tell her that her hat is obstructing his view, but when she takes the hat off a massive ball of hair pops open making it worse. The following moments has Mickey trying to score better seats, flying balloons over the arena and even sitting right on the field.

The ESPN México team has traveled to the South American country to provide inside details of the tournament. The only caveat with is that the network doesn't have the rights to air any of the matches and has to think of creative ways to promote their coverage. "Futbol Picante" show host José Ramón Fernández and his team created a music video to the tune of Pharrell Williams' "Happy." In the clip shot around Rio de Janeiro, Brazil we can see the veteran sports commentator dancing strangely. We can tell this was not his idea, but extra points for putting in the effort and playing along. Fernández used to be the main sports guy at TV Azteca and covered many World Cup's for the network, but left when management was changing. He has turned ESPN México into a referential network, bringing in his expertise and uncanny personality to sports lovers. Watch the "Happy" clip here!
