Lionel Messi delivered an emotional message to the Argentina squad moments before the World Cup final against Spain. This will be the first decisive clash between two continental champions in the history of the men's World Cup, promising an intense spectacle between two teams in exceptional form.
The final takes place on Sunday night, with Messi tasked with leading Argentina towards a second World Cup title, as he is just two goals behind Kylian Mbappé in the race for the Golden Boot, following the French forward's two goals against England. On Instagram, Messi shared a statement that many interpret as a final message to his teammates before his last appearance in the albiceleste shirt: “The best part of all these years has never been just the titles, but the entire journey. Sharing every day with this group, competing together, rising in difficult moments, and enjoying every step. Thank you to each of my teammates, the coaching staff, and everyone who works every day to keep this National Team like a family. No matter what happens, this group has already written a story that we will never forget and that no one can erase. Let's go Argentina.”

I'm not talking about my last World Cup or anything like that. This team always gives everything and owes nothing to anyone. This team never stops trying. We go out to win with our football and determination, and we are in another World Cup final,” declared the Argentine captain.
