Lionel Messi shared his feelings regarding the 2026 World Cup. Congratulating Spain, the 39-year-old legend stated the following;

"The pain is immense, and this wound will be hard to heal.

However, at the same time, I carry all the beauty in my heart... The matches where we gave our all to come from behind and win, which will remain in our memories forever, and the support of an entire nation that, combined with the hard work and effort of this team, carried us once again among the best in the world...

Even though it is hard to grasp the value of what we achieved today, this team managed to reach two consecutive World Cup finals.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for every good wish and message.

Once again, we managed to unite as a country and stay together, sharing that immense pride of being Argentine.

I also want to congratulate Spain on their championship."
