Lionel Messi’s father, Jorge Messi, is receiving treatment for a health issue and is under medical supervision, with the family saying he is recovering and progressing favourably, according to Yahoo Sports. Messi had been in tears after scoring his first goal in Argentina’s 3-0 World Cup win over Algeria, a match in which he scored a hat-trick to draw level with Miroslav Klose atop the all-time World Cup goalscoring list; Argentina next play Austria on Monday.
