Benin Amazons Memorial gifted to Messi

During Lionel Messi's farewell match with the Argentine national team, the captain of the Benin national team, Sisi Dalmeida, gifted him a replica of the "Amazon Memorial Statue." This statue is one of the most prominent landmarks in Cotonou, Benin. The metal sculpture, weighing 150 tons and standing 30 meters tall, symbolizes women and the role of the elite "Dahomey Amazons," the ancient warrior women. It is the second tallest statue in Africa after the Renaissance Monument in Senegal. This monument, inaugurated in 2022, was presented to Messi's wife, Antonella, as a tribute to women's roles and the history of resistance in Benin.
