Lionel Messi has finally spoken out after Argentina’s heartbreaking World Cup final loss on Sunday, July 19.
His message marked the first time the eight-time Ballon d’Or winner publicly addressed the result, having declined to speak to reporters immediately after the match.
Messi’s emotional post also comes as he remains under fire for attempting to have Spain defender Marc Cucurella sent off during the closing stages of the final, prompting online reactions such as, “My idol making a fool of himself.”
