Lionel Messi FIFA WORLD CUP Qatar 2022

The weight of twenty years finally settles as Lionel Messi confirms his retirement from the Argentina national team, a choice born from deep reflection after the final match rather than a sudden impulse. While the decision continues to hurt deeply, he believes this is the right moment to step away, noting that he has nothing left physically or emotionally to give despite always doing his best for the jersey and the nation. He acknowledges that new young players are emerging who deserve their place on the field, ensuring the team moves forward with fresh energy. His gratitude extends to fans, family, coaches, teammates, and executives for their unwavering support over two decades, promising to remain one of them and offer support from afar through good times and bad. The journey included unforgettable memories and moments, especially during the recent years when everything was won, but also the challenges faced before that era. It is worth noting that these words were first written on July 21, just two days after the final match concluded. However, the death of his father, Jorge Messi, on August 8, reinforced his certainty in making this difficult decision even more than it was before. The emotional pain of leaving remains, yet the clarity of the timing feels absolute now.
