Lionel Messi is regarded as the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) in football. The Argentine’s cabinet is filled with trophies and accolades and he has achieved almost everything in the game, except for one thing – World Cup. The 35-year-old came agonizingly close to winning it in 2014 but finished second best after Argentina faced a 0-1 defeat against Germany in extra time.
Argentina once again failed in 2018 World Cup when they faced defeat against France in quarterfinal. However, the whole world is hoping for a happy ending for the magician, who before the tournament had declared that FIFA WC 2022 would be his last World Cup.
Lionel Messi is now just two wins away from World Cup, and the support for him and the Argentina team has been pouring in from all around the world.
The people in Argentina showed their love for the footballer as they flew a giant Lionel Messi jersey over in Rosario, Argentina ahead of team’s semi-final clash against Croatia.
