What kind of glory in the end
It's worth the hardships of the road
The answer is back in departure
It is engraved in everyone's heart
- Hercules Cup
That one was long late
It's late
Big! Force! God! Cup!
Messi at the moment
The "chosen son" in the eyes of the world
Among the crying teammates with joy
Laugh like a child
Exactly five times
This time
Messi can finally be generous
Approach her
Kiss her
Take her home!
A dream come true
It turned out to be so wonderful
Qatar World Cup
It was Messi's fifth World Cup
It was also his last World Cup
It's like a cliché and hot-blooded sports movie
The process has been full of ups and downs
But the protagonist can finally stand on the "top of the world"
Set foot on the soil of Doha
The first battle is broken
It was also reversed 1:2 by Saudi Arabia
Though
Messi and his team
Since 2019
Already 36 games unbeaten
But a loss is the World Cup
Also lost to the recognized weakest opponent in the group
The edge of life and death
Messi and his team-mates
Staged Jedi Strike Back
Two 2:0
Argentina first qualified from the group
Knockout first round
It's Messi's career
The 1000th game
Goals, victories, promotions
Messi did not mention the record
He only has the next one in his sights
Face an upgraded version of the "uncrowned king" Dutch team
The 2-0 lead was drawn
Mars splashes, yellow cards fly in the game
After extra time, penalties
Messi and his Argentine team
Step over orange "tulips"
One step closer to your dreams
The semi-finals were a brutal one
"The Magic Flute" with Messi
The best two No. 10s in the world
Only one can advance to the finals
I have done countless multiple-choice questions in my life
But this time
There really is no standard answer
God gave His choice
- Messi
Last runner-up Croatia
Stop there with Modric
Final night
Messi stepped in again
Lusail Stadium
This is where the first match in the group stage was lost
It is also the place where the Netherlands and Croatia are eliminated
Exhaust all imagination
I can't imagine that the final is such a process
Travel to every corner of the world
Watched countless football matches
Probably none of them were so thrilling
Suffocating
2:0 lead to 80 minutes
Mbappe scored twice in 97 seconds
Equalize, overtime
Messi scored again
Kylian Mbappe equalised on another penalty
120 minutes, 3:3
Penalty shootout
4:2！
For this moment
Messi has been waiting for 16 years
From a young boy and so on
"Gold Miner"
Wait for the one who came around
Golden gloves Martinez
Best Young Player Fernandez
The old and strong "angel" Di Maria
And every teammate who is united
As a seven-time Golden Globe winner
The "king of the ball" in the hearts of countless fans
He has won numerous individual and club honors
Who would have thought
Messi who gives and takes on the pitch
It was only at the age of 35 that he first lifted the Hercules Cup
2006 World Cup in Germany
19-year-old Messi
Fledgling and spirited
Although most of the time
Waiting on the bench
But wonderful goals and magical assists
Let the world be full of expectations
Four years later
Messi, who began to dominate football
In the distant land of Africa
But full of loneliness
5 games, zero goals
That first one is heavy
Golden Globe trophy
It became heavier at that time
"Pampas Eagles" in 2014
Distance from Hercules Cup
So close, so far away
Close at hand, far away in the world
Final overtime
Goetze dealt a fatal blow
Ended Messi's dream
People remembered
Messi stared at the Hercules Cup
That look
Another four years
Messi has passed his prime
But new geniuses have emerged
A battle of goals
Laugh to the end
Still not Messi
35 years old
From "rookie" to elder of the Five Dynasties
Messi wearing the captain's armband
Want to wear a crown
It must bear its weight
Because he's Messi
So Argentina has always been
World Cup favourites
Because he's Messi
No matter what changes happen to the Argentine team
Will always be looked up to
Because he's Messi
Whenever someone thinks
Argentina can do wonders
This winter, in Qatar
Messi did it
After all
He is the one who possesses supreme powers
But low-key, humble, gentle
Even by an Argentine writer
Called
Messi of "The Last Canine Man"
Perhaps fate has finally decided
No more making him sad repeatedly
Goodbye, Messi
This time, satisfied
This time, it got its wish
Only this time
It's also a bit stunned
After this time, there will be no next time
Goodbye, Messi
Four years later
The World Cup will come back
It's just that
There is no longer Messi in the World Cup
Goodbye, Messi!
