🚨 Zlatan Ibrahimovic: "Why do I love Messi so much? He's natural, it's like the game was built for him. Everything he touches, becomes gold and he has a team that is ready to die for him. "Him winning the World Cup will not change his status as the greatest player of all time, because I don't believe we will get another Messi.

🎙️ Wayne Rooney on Lionel Messi crying after scoring in Argentina’s opening World Cup game:

🗣️ “That image tells you everything about what football means to Lionel Messi.” “People see the trophies, the records, the fame... but they don't always see the emotion and pressure that comes with carrying a nation’s hopes.” “This is his sixth World Cup, he has achieved almost everything in football, yet scoring for Argentina on this stage still brings tears to his eyes.” “That’s because it means something. It’s not about statistics, it’s about passion, pride, and representing your country.” “When a player like Messi cries after a goal, you realise he still loves the game as much as he did as a kid.” “Moments like this are why football is the greatest sport in the world.”

🎙️ Zinedine Zidane on Lionel Messi’s hat-trick vs his son’s team:

🗣️ “What we are witnessing from Lionel Messi tonight is something you simply cannot prepare for as a coach, as a football professional, or even as a parent watching your own child on the opposite side.” “A hat-trick at this level of football, in a match of this intensity, against a team where my son is involved, creates a very complicated emotional situation that is difficult to fully explain in words.” “As a football man, you have no choice but to respect absolute greatness when you see it in front of you, but as a father, you are also watching your child try to compete against something that feels almost impossible to stop.” “Every single time Messi gets the ball, you feel like something dangerous is about to happen immediately, because every touch, every movement, every decision turns into a problem for the opposition.” “At a certain point in the match, you are no longer even thinking about tactics, formations, or instructions… you are just hoping the rhythm of the game slows down for a few seconds.” “I have immense respect for what he is doing tonight because this is not normal football anymore, this is a player operating at a level where everything he touches becomes decisive.” “And yes… as a father watching from the sidelines, there is that silent moment where you just want the match to end, not because of anger, but because of how overwhelming the situation has become.”

🚨 Arsene Wenger on Lionel Messi's hat-trick and becoming the World Cup's all time leading goalscorer:

🗣“What we witnessed today goes beyond another record. It is the continuation of a career that has consistently redefined the standards of excellence in football. It wasn't simply a hat-trick,it was the quality of the goals, the intelligence behind every decision, and the efficiency with which Messi influenced the game. Those are the qualities that separate truly exceptional players from the rest. For many years people have tried to compare Messi with other great footballers, but there comes a point where comparisons lose their meaning. He has built a legacy that stands on its own. What fascinates me most is his evolution. I genuinely don't know whether the young Messi, with his explosive pace and dribbling, was better than the experienced Messi we see today, who controls every moment of the game with his intelligence and understanding. Very few players improve with age the way he has. The emotion after his second goal revealed another side of his greatness. It reminded everyone of the difficult journey he has had with Argentina,the disappointments, the criticism, and the perseverance that eventually led to glory. That emotional connection with his country continues to drive him. To score his first World Cup hat trick while becoming the tournament's all time leading goalscorer is an extraordinary achievement. It is another milestone in a career that already seemed impossible to improve. Perhaps the most remarkable aspect is his longevity. He finished the 2022 World Cup by lifting the trophy after scoring twice in the final, and he has opened the 2026 tournament with a hattrick. At almost 39 years of age, he continues to perform with the same clarity, technical quality, and love for the game that defined him in his twenties. That is the mark of a truly timeless footballer.”

• "You equalled Klose’s record and surpassed Ronaldo Nazario as player with the most goals in World Cup history?" 🚨🗣️ Leo Messi: "It is a great honor to be able to compete with all these greats, including Ronaldo Nazario… He is among the best players I have watched." "Ronaldo Nazario was one of the greatest players of all time, and yet he is not in first place… So in the end, this is just a stat." @leo_army

Lionel Messi explains why he cried after scoring first of three goals in World Cup win over Algeria, as Lionel Scaloni claims 'incredible' Argentina captain 'will be the best as long as he wants' 🔥🇦🇷 @leo_army

🎙️| Lionel Messi: “I can’t ask for anything more, God has given me so much, now whatever happens, I can only enjoy it. “I’m just happy to be considered one of the greatest in football history, I’m grateful to be considered among so many great players.” @leo_army

🎙️ Thierry Henry on Lionel Messi becoming the oldest player ever to score a World Cup hat-trick and the player with the most goals from outside the box in World Cup history:

🗣️ “I honestly don't know what more there is left to say about Lionel Messi anymore. Every time you think he has reached the top of the mountain, he somehow finds another peak that nobody else has ever climbed before.” “The oldest player to score a World Cup hat-trick. Just stop and think about that for a second. At an age when most players are retired, coaching, or sitting in television studios, Messi is still breaking records on the biggest stage in football.” “And it's not just the hat-trick that amazes me. He now has more World Cup goals from outside the box than anyone in history. That tells you everything about the level of technique, vision, and confidence we are talking about.” “These are not lucky goals. These are moments of genius. The type of goals where everyone in the stadium knows what he wants to do, but nobody can stop him from doing it anyway.” “What makes this even more incredible is that this is his sixth World Cup. Six World Cups. Different generations, different teammates, different opponents, yet the same outcome every single time Lionel Messi deciding matches.” “People always ask what makes certain players special. Well, special players break records. Legends create records. Messi is doing both at the same time while carrying the expectations of an entire nation.” “I've played against some of the greatest footballers in history, I've watched some of the greatest footballers in history, but what Messi continues to do at 38 years old simply doesn't make sense.” “This is no longer about talent. This is no longer about numbers. This is football history unfolding right before our eyes, and every single match feels like another chapter in a story that nobody thought was possible.”
