Its an absolute privilege watching him play all these years, hes the reason 12 year old me fell in love with this sport and barca. i watched him achieve everything there is to achieve oh there will never ever be another one like you lionel❤️🥹
I wonder who will be passed Captain now, looking forward to the next cup tbh and seeing more from them without Messi too.
Won’t be the same at all, but they’re a wonderful team to watch 🙌🏼
Argentina weren’t the same as they were in the last World Cup. This wasn’t a smooth ride, it was a battle from start to finish. They suffered, fought, bled, and sweated for every victory, while all some people could talk about was a “rigged” tournament. Their resilience, togetherness, and refusal to give up deserved far more respect than they ever received.
It was an honor rooting for you 🇦🇷🧉
People acting like Argentina is some thugged out team of animals shows no one used to watch the game.
Sergio Ramos was a bigger thug than this entire Argentina team combined. Real Madrid used to butcher Messi and Barcelona.
People have gotten so used to this soft weenie style of soccer that was taken over to protect their product.
The game has to be soft now because every other kid player costs 60m and your stars now all get bought at 100m+.
Can’t be having a Ramos or Pepi butchering 200m worth of players every game anymore.
Messi & Argentina got disrespected throughout the tournament because of blatant lies, disgusting propaganda.
They never got the respect they deserve for their mentality. It was always fake stuff, lies, campaigns from certain pussies.
nunca pensé ver así a scaloni teniendo que abandonar la conferencia porque no dejaba de llorar, con todo y fallas es y será el mejor dt que tuvimos, AIMAR POR FAVOR CONVENCELO DE QUEDARSE
I would've loved to see messi win because of how unfairly he's been treated this entire tournament by the Internet but I'm at peace knowing he did his best. He achieved his international titles without the luxury of a superteam to ride on
Lionel Scaloni: "I hope people are proud of Leo Messi.
"He’s the greatest footballer to have ever stepped onto a pitch.”
"What he did at this World Cup is incredible.”
And if this is goodbye from Messi from international play, from the bottom of football’s heart:
Thank you Messi. Thank you for everything you’ve given to football. Thank you for inspiring billions around the world with your football.
