The world of football surrenders to King Messi

Leo Messi and Argentina were crowned kings of the world in a historic final against France in Lusail that was decided in a penalty shootout. The Argentine star, at the age of 35, lifted the great title that was missing from his impressive record and the congratulations and recognition from friends and rivals did not wait. Pelé, Neymar, Ronaldo Nazario and others wrote him messages on social networks.

“Congratulations, Argentina. I’m sure Diego is smiling now. Congratulations to Messi winning his first World Cup as he deserved for his career,” Pelé wrote on his social networks.

Neymar, his teammate at PSG, remembered his friend on Twitter. “Congratulations Brother,” he wrote. Ronaldo Nazario put aside his admitted Madridismo to dedicate some emotional words to him. “This kind of soccer puts aside any rivalry. I saw many Brazilians, and people from all over the world, who supported Messi in this electrifying final. A farewell worthy of the genius that, more than being a star at the World Cup, became the captain of an era. Congratulations Messi!” said the legendary Brazilian striker
