It’s the same guy who made one of the calmest men in the game, Leo Messi, angry after winning the most important trophy of his career.
The social-media-famous for his pinch of salt gesture chef broke a golden FIFA rule by making his way onto the pitch following Argentina’s victory on Sunday.
Usually, such honours are reserved for the players and staff who have worked hard to become champions, and shouldn’t be treated as brand-boosting photo opportunity.
He posed alongside Argentina players, bit into a medal, held the World Cup trophy, which is forbidden by FIFA, and even kissed it.
If cringe was a person, it would be him.
