💔 Leo Messi: "I don’t know what I’m going to do without you. I don’t know how to keep going. All I ever did was play football, and now I have serious doubts about whether I’ll keep doing it for much longer.
"You were by my side from the very beginning, and there was so little left until the end. Why couldn’t you hold on just a little longer so we could finish it together?"
❤️🩹🇦🇷 Leo Messi: “Dad, you kept asking me to play in one last World Cup… just days before it began was when your condition got worse”.
“It was the first time you weren’t going to be there with me at tournament… but Mom kept telling me you were going to get better and that you’d be well enough to travel”.
“I kept telling you we were going to reach the World Cup final so you could make the trip, this was my mission once again”.
“After every match, I waited for and missed your message. That’s when I realized how serious the situation really was”.
“I couldn’t stop thinking about going as far as possible, give you more time and the chance to watch one of the games”.
“We reached the final, but you couldn’t be there. I wanted to win it so I could bring the trophy to you and show you another one. I couldn’t”.
“My legs just couldn’t give me any more”.
“This time I tried to push beyond what my body could handle, but I couldn’t”.
“I never managed to feel physically right”.
“We didn’t become champions Dad, but you have no idea how much we enjoyed every match. Once again, you were right: I had to be there and play in it… as you told me, always”.

🇪🇸❤️🚨 @rubenuria: "As I imagine many of you know that Leo Messi has donated €80,000 for the reconstruction of Sierra Oeste in Madrid. As a Madrid resident, I simply want to say thank you to him and hopefully soon he visits the capital of Spain so we can give him a standing ovation first and then the hug he deserves for helping in these very complicated moments, especially when he had zero obligation to do so.
"This gesture from Leo speaks to how great he is both on and off the field. A true gentleman. I know Leo well and I know he doesn't like this to be known or talked about because he doesn't care for publicity, nor does he need it.
"But I do want people to know. Why? Because this isn't Messi's only donation. Just so people know, Messi already donated a significant amount of money to the Red Cross in other parts of Spain. Messi also extended help to combat the effects of that damn DANA [storm] that devastated Valencia and that our Valencian friends suffered from. Furthermore, just so people know, Messi along with his wife Antonela Roccuzzo also wanted to help those affected by the earthquakes in Venezuela.
"Messi, I repeat, does not need publicity, nor does he want it. But at least for me, I damn well feel like making it known. He isn't just the number one of all time on the pitch, but he is also the greatest outside of it. Thank you, Leo, in the name of many Madrid residents, and of course, many Spaniards."
