National team striker Argentina on football Lionel Messi has long surpassed the legendary compatriot Diego Maradona in greatness, he was just missing the World Cup, the European volleyball champion told Alexei Spiridonov .
On Sunday, the Argentinian national team became world champions by beating the French team (3:3, 4:2 in pen) in the penalty shootout of the tournament final, which took place in Qatar. Messi won the World Cup for the first time in his career. The 35-year-old Argentinian was named the best player of the tournament, he scored 7 goals in 7 matches.
– Messi was rightly recognized as the best player of the tournament. He just played football and didn’t trade names on the pitch. The Argentine fought for himself and for the team, leading it to the title. I don’t think he’s offended because of the lost World Cup top scorer title.
The greatness of Messi and Maradona? Lionel passed Diego. Both are world champions. Messi has seven Ballons d’Or, Maradona has zero. How many times has Maradona won the Champions League? How many Messis? And the national championships? And what are we talking about then? I think Messi has long since surpassed Maradona in greatness, he was just missing the World Cup. And now he is, – said Spiridonov “”.
