Over two thousand delirious soccer lovers gave sleep the miss as they danced, cried and shouted slogans eulogising football magician Lionel Messi, who arrived in Kolkata early Wednesday. However, the large number of people, at the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport to welcome him were left heartbroken as the organisers packed him into a vehicle from the tarmac and drove him out of the airport through a sidegate.
