🚨Andrea Pirlo on Lionel Messi being nominated for the 2026 Ballon d'Or while Cristiano Ronaldo isn't:
🎙️ “At this stage of their careers, you simply cannot compare Messi and Ronaldo. They became different types of players.
Messi has always been a playmaker as much as a goalscorer. He can operate anywhere across the attacking line, drop deeper, create chances, control the tempo and still decide games with goals and assists.
Ronaldo was an explosive winger when he was young. He could create, dribble and score. But later in his career, he became a pure striker, and naturally his involvement in the build-up became less.
Today, Messi can still dictate a game from deeper positions. Ronaldo's main responsibility is finishing.
Defenders know this, so they focus on denying him space inside the box.
That is why, at this age, football naturally favours Messi's style more. And honestly, Messi could play until he is 50 and still find a way to influence games. His understanding of football is simply different."

🚨🎙️ René Weiler, D.C. United head coach, on losing to Inter Miami:
“Honestly, I don’t think I will ever understand this man. We came into this game with a plan specifically designed to limit Messi. We put enough players around him, closed the spaces he likes to exploit, and made sure he couldn’t receive the ball comfortably. At some point, I genuinely thought we had figured him out.
The first half was a success. We knew we were dealing with a special player, so we prepared for every possible situation. We wanted to make his evening as difficult as possible, and for a while, our plan was working.
But the second half? I honestly have no explanation for what I witnessed. Messi became unstoppable. He scored twice, and the woodwork denied him the chance to complete a hat-trick. I was standing there wondering what more we could possibly do.
And this is the part I still cannot understand.
“Is this not the same man who recently said goodbye to international football because his legs could no longer give him everything he wanted?”
I heard those words, and now I have watched him dominate a game like this. It makes you wonder whether age even means anything to him.
My players spent the entire second half chasing him. We tried to close him down, double up on him, and take away his space, but he kept finding a way out.
Every time we thought we had him under control, he escaped.
Every time we sent another player to help, he found a pass nobody else could see.
As a coach, you spend hours studying opponents, preparing your players, and searching for solutions. But sometimes, you face a player who makes all that preparation look meaningless. Messi can make you question everything you thought you knew about football.
I respect Inter Miami, and they deserved their victory. But tonight, I have to be honest with you.
We didn’t just lose to Inter Miami. We lost to the greatest of all time.”
🎙️: “Why retire from international football when you’re still performing at the highest level?”
🎙️ Lionel Messi: “I feel like I’ve achieved everything in football. Now, I just want to enjoy more time with Antonela and my kids while focusing on Inter Miami.”

Pastor Juma Mulokole has travelled from Jinja to Kampala with UGX 100 million to take on Frank Gashumba’s UGX 200 million challenge to any pastor who can heal a patient in ICU.
Mulokole has challenged Gashumba to take him to any hospital of his choice, where he will attempt to heal a randomly selected ICU patient.
He says if the patient is not healed, Gashumba can take his UGX 100 million. But if the patient is healed, Gashumba should forget about his UGX 200 million challenge.

🚨🎙️ LEO MESSI FULL SPEECH:
"I have nothing left to do but thank this shirt. For 20 years, even through the worst moments, I never stopped fighting, pushing forward, giving everything I had and wanting to be here.
"Not coming here anymore and no longer being with the Argentina National Team is going to hurt a lot. If it were up to me, I would love to be here for my entire life, because playing for Argentina is the most beautiful thing there is.
"I think I’m talking more than ever today because I simply don’t want this moment to end.
"But I think the time has come for me to retire. The last World Cup took a lot out of us after everything we went through. We arrived in the final with just enough left in us, but we fought until the very end, like we always did.
"We came very close to winning it again, and despite everything that was said about us, nothing strange happened. The match against England took a lot out of us because we gave absolutely everything.
"In 2022, we had the dream of fulfilling not only my dream, but the dream of an entire country: becoming world champions again. And we did it.
"We won the World Cup, the Copa América, the Finalissima… I’m incredibly grateful for everything I experienced with this National Team.
"But this journey wasn’t only about 2022 or this last World Cup. So many teammates fought alongside me for this shirt long before we finally became world champions. Never doubt how much every one of them fought and gave for Argentina.
"It was a privilege and an honor to share the pitch with all of my teammates and to share so much of our lives together away from football. Every time we stepped onto the pitch, I knew we could compete against anyone because I had warriors beside me who were willing to leave absolutely everything out there.
"To achieve the biggest things, you need a strong group. And it’s during the most difficult moments that you truly discover what kind of team you have. That’s one of the biggest reasons we were able to achieve everything we did.
"And especially to this group: THANK YOU. They helped me fulfill the dream I had since I was a child. They helped me become a world champion.
"I also want to thank the people. I was lucky enough to play in so many cities across Argentina, and everywhere I went, I received an incredible amount of love.
"Throughout all these years, wherever we played in the world, the stadiums were always full of Argentinians. No matter the match or the distance, people made an enormous effort to be there. We know how difficult that is. Wherever we went in the world, it felt like we were playing at home because we could always feel your support.
"And that support has to continue. Difficult moments will come, and those are the moments when you have to support the team more than ever. You need strong, united groups because there will always be people who want to see the National Team fail, and we can’t give them that satisfaction.
"Here, in this stadium, I experienced one of the happiest days of my life: our first match at home after becoming world champions. It was beautiful. And today might be one of the saddest because I’m standing here saying goodbye.
"I’m going to miss all of you so much, but I’ll always be on your side. I’ll be supporting these boys and everyone who comes after them.
"There are so many emotions going through me right now. I’m surely forgetting many things I would like to say because this is a very difficult moment for me. The first person who comes to my mind is my dad.
"I’m going to miss playing here so much. I love you all, and I’m proud to be Argentine.
"I leave grateful, proud and at peace. Thank you for everything.” 🇦🇷❤️
