Cristiano Ronaldo paid homage to Lionel Messi following the Argentine’s farewell to international soccer, commending his long-time rival on writing a “story that will live on forever.”
Messi played his last minutes for Argentina on Tuesday evening in front of a sold-out crowd in Buenos Aires. The 39-year-old pulled down the curtain on a legendary career for La Albiceleste, one that brought home a World Cup title and two Copa América trophies, among other honors.
