[@dianathehuntress8163]

The Birth of the Messi the Messiah, who did not know what to do with ball as this man screamed 'Shoot!, Shoot'. I teared when he got emotional. What a beautiful humble man, there needs to be a respected tribute in the museum of Lionel Messi and/or Wikipedia!

Did you discover him? Him: I didn't discover him. I was just the first one to put him on a pitch.

He would of been so proud when Messi lifted the World Cup! What a honour to this man…. I was a coach for under 6s 10 years ago, last month one of the kids who first started with me is now signed his first professional contract at 16yrs old, I’m proud of him and hope so much he does very well, I support him till retired
