Leo Messi is still sweet and this morning he again scored a trademark goal to seal Argentina’s crucial victory over Ecuador at the start of the albiceleste’s path to the 2026 World Cup.
At the end of the game, a shocking image. Messi exchanged his shirt and gestures of complicity with the goalkeeper with whom he scored ‘roto’, a great goal, the Ecuador goalkeeper Hernán Galíndez, who took away a very important memory despite the defeat.
But the image contains an intra-history, as Messi and Galíndez have known each other for many, many years. And also, they share the same place of birth, Rosario.
“We were both from the South zone, we lived more or less close. We face each other in all the finals, I have a DVD of having won a match against him, but he almost always won. He showed up when he was little . what a monster he is. But as everyone knows, the He went to Spain for 12 years. We never face each other again,” revealed Galíndez, a nationalized Ecuadorian, in an interview with the Argentine newspaper ‘Olé’.

As Galíndez once explained, Messi scored the first goal he ever conceded, when he was just 5 years old.
