Lionel Messi makes a young fan's night by signing autograph

Lionel Messi made a young fan's night by scribbling his autograph on to a matchday programme before Argentina's 2-1 win against Croatia at Upton Park. 

The young boy looked delighted after getting the chance to meet the Barcelona superstar ahead of the international friendly at West Ham's home ground. 

Messi scored the winning goal from the penalty spot which would have made the young fan's memento even more special.
