IIRC, his celebration, pointing to the heavens, is in dedication to his grandmother, no?

About Messi's grandma, [MENTION=14243]XaviV[/MENTION]:

It is thanks to her grandmother that Messi has persevered in football. It was her who led him to his training in Rosario, she convinced the coaches to play the little man with the biggest. Alzheimer’s patient, she died when Leo was 10 years old. He still talks a lot about her and he dedicates his goals by pointing his finger at the sky
“I miss her so much. I so wanted her to see what I’ve become. It is for this reason that I dedicate my goals, because I like to think she sees me where she is ”

Yes, but I didn't know it. Google helped:

Messi explained why he looks upwards to the sky after he scores in celebration.

"I am doing this because I dedicate my goals to my grandmother. She took to me to football but now she can't see how far I have come. Nevertheless, she continues to help me and my family," Messi explained.

Sorry, I am not

When he makes sign of a cross and points to the sky, he does it in memory of his grandmother who played significant role in his early childhood (was taking him to play football and was also crazy about football).

Thank you! I thought he was just pointing to God.(himself)
