🚨🔥The most perfectly imperfect story comes to an end. Lionel Messi's journey with the Argentine National Team was far from the dream or ideal scenario, but it was real. He fell, a thousand times over. Because just like in life, you lose more than you win.
But Lionel was not a hero because of his victories, but because of his path, his missteps. His flirtation with walking away was nothing more than a cruel reflection of how much he cared about bringing joy to his country. And his return, a display of fortitude proving that he can be bent, but never broken.
Finally, the reward arrived, but even then, he decided that would not be the end of the road. Because the goal isn't victory, but happiness. Representing the Argentine jersey made Messi happy.
That is why his final match being a World Cup final that ended in defeat only serves to grow his legend. He says it in his letter: "I am empty, I have nothing left to give." Because perhaps that is what life is about: giving, without expecting anything in return.
Lionel Andrés Messi, the tragic hero. Thank you so much for everything.
