Messi has now made the official FIFA World Cup Team of the Tournament three times.
Ronaldo has never made the team in his entire career.
There was never a debate.
Messi was doing all of these against MLS defenders, and everyone clowned him. Now he’s doing it against top Premier League players on the biggest stage at 39.
SPEAK NOW MF’S😭😭
People kept saying Messi and Argentina hadn’t faced a big team at this World Cup.
Then they picked England of all teams to produce their best performance of the tournament. There is no script more insane than this.😭❤️
Since Messi haters will call it rigged no matter what happens, I need Switzerland to knock out Colombia and Norway to knock out England. Give Messi the easiest path possible to the final without facing any big team. if they’re going to cry anyway, I might as well enjoy the tears
🚨 “As Long as Messi Is on the Pitch, You Stay” — Diego Simeone Reveals Emotional Moment
🗣️:“There was a moment during the game, after Egypt scored the second goal, I felt done… completely done. My heart couldn’t take it anymore. I even thought about getting up and leaving the stadium.
But then my wife looked at me and said, ‘Do you remember there’s still Messi on the pitch?’
I said, ‘Yes…’
And she told me, ‘As long as Messi is still there, you stay. Because anything can happen.’
So I stayed.
And of course… he delivered. He always does in moments like that. That’s why he’s special. That’s why people believe.
I have to thank my wife for that moment… because she reminded me of something important.
And tonight… when we get home, let’s just say she’s getting the best version of me.” 😄
