This is an unbelievable comparison man

[OGi 🐐 @BCNOgi]

It takes incomprehensible superhuman strength to go and play in a world cup and quite literally carry an entire team and nation on your back to yet another final at the age of 39 while your father is terminally ill. All while some mentally deranged and flat out evil people on social media are comparing you to a genocidal maniac.

Lionel Andres Messi Cucittini, you are stronger than all of us put together. You represent a beacon of hope not just for football but for humanity in general.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for everything you've done for me, for us fans, and for the sport.

Te amo Leo. ❤️❤️❤️

Um BRASILEIRO, ídolo do REAL MADRID, diz estar realizando um sonho de jogar com Messi e chamou ele de Deus do futebol.

Vocês não tem noção do tamanho do Messi.

Isso é ser GOAT, cedo ou tarde todos irão te reconhecer.

"Ronaldo is yet to achieve Messi's failures"

I hope the little boy from rosario knows he’s given this sport far more than it’s ever given him. Football’s greatest gift was him.

Que te voy a decir ídolo, nos hiciste creer a todos que era posible una vez más. Con 39 años fuiste el mejor jugador de la Copa del Mundo. Nos diste todo, nos hiciste volver a ilusionarnos y nos diste lo mejor durante 20 años. Si este fue el último baile, gracias por todo Lionel.

[OGi 🐐 @BCNOgi]

I don't know what I've done to deserve this heaven on Earth, but I'm eternally grateful to you for taking me there again, Leo.
Let's climb the mountain top one last time, together. Vamos.
