(9 months ago)Lionel Messi scored a total of 885 goals in his career, but this summer he was asked to choose only one. The 38-year-old decided on one of the early iconic goals of his glorious career. This week, Messi confirmed that his presentation for Argentina was the last in an official match on Argentina soil. [...]
This week, Messi confirmed that his presentation for Argentina was the last in an official match on Argentina soil. Many had expected it to continue at least until the World Cup next summer in the US, Canada and Mexico. At that match, he achieved two goals to mark the moment.
Having waited so long to lift the trophy, it would not be surprising if Messy had chosen one of his goals in the 2022 World Cup finals with Argentina. However, he preferred an earlier success, perhaps the match he declared himself on the big scene.
Because of the moment, because of its significance, because it crowned a memorable year... for me it's the most important of all,” said Messy, speaking of the head goal of Manchester United in the 2009 Champions League final in Rome.
The reason Messi sat down to choose his preferred goal relates to the charity project “A goal in life”. Artist Refik Anadova will turn this goal into an art act, while the Inter Miami Club foundation will auction it, with revenues going to charity, according to RAC1./Periscopi/
