🗣️ Lamine Yamal: "O tarihin en iyisi ve her zaman hayranlık duyduğum biri. Maç sonunda ona saygımı gösterdim.
Bana yoluma devam etmemi ve geleceğin bizim kuşağımıza ait olduğunu söyledi. Bu sözler, boynumdaki altın madalya kadar değerli."
“It’s been 6 amazing years…So I’m asking you directly “you never tire to date me?” Cos I dan tire. I mean some people go use the 6 years born like 3 kids”
This is the realest most beautiful honest proposals I've seen🥹❤️❤️
✉️🇦🇷 Leo Messi’s letter.
“𝑳𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒍 𝑴𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒊’𝒔 𝒍𝒆𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓. ❤️🩹🥺
The pain is immense, it will take time for this wound to heal.
But I also choose to hold on to all the good things, all matches we turned around by giving everything and moments that will remain in our memories forever.
I will always remember the support of an entire country that, together with the work and effort of this group, brought us back once again among the best teams in the world.
Today, it is difficult to appreciate what we achieved… but this group has really reached two consecutive World Cup finals.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for every greeting and every message.
Once again, we managed to come together as a country and stand united, sharing the immense pride of being Argentine.
I also want to congratulate Spain on winning World Cup”. 🇪🇸
🚨🗣️ Pau Cubarsi: "It was a huge privilege to share the field with Messi."
"I also felt sad because he's my role model and I don't like seeing him lose."
Messi has already completed football, he's a previous World Cup winner, and by far has the most impressive 2026 World Cup tournament.
You can't ridicule him over the 2026 WC loss.
Lamine Yamal on Lionel Messi after Spain’s FIFA World Cup triumph over Argentina.
🗣️ Lamine Yamal: “Tonight I lifted the World Cup for Spain, but I also experienced something I’ll tell my children one day. The man who once held me as a baby was standing on the other side of the pitch, fighting for the same dream. Football has a beautiful way of bringing stories full circle.”
“When I looked at Messi after the final whistle, I didn’t just see an opponent. I saw the player who made millions of kids, including me, believe football could be art. I saw the man whose videos I watched over and over, trying to copy things that nobody else could do.”
“I know this defeat will hurt him. You don’t play with that much passion, carry your country again and again, and lose a World Cup final without feeling pain. Even in defeat, he kept demanding the ball, creating chances and refusing to stop believing. That’s what champions do.”
“People will talk about Spain winning this World Cup, and they should. But they’ll also remember that, at an age when most legends have already retired, Messi was still making the world’s best defenders panic every time he touched the ball. That’s extraordinary.”
“The photo of Messi bathing me became one of football’s most iconic images. Today we took another picture together, but this time I could thank him face to face. Without players like him, kids like me wouldn’t dare dream this big.”
“One day another generation will replace mine too. That’s football. But there will never be another Lionel Messi. Records can be broken and trophies can be won, but inspiring an entire generation to fall in love with the game is something only a few people in history will ever achieve.”
“Tonight belongs to Spain. Tomorrow, the debates will continue. But my respect for Lionel Messi will never change. He didn’t need to win this final to prove who he is. For me, he’ll always be one of the greatest players football has ever seen, and sharing the pitch with him was a privilege I’ll carry for the rest of my life.”
