“Messi, a player from Rosario, Argentina, with an illustrious career winning 46 championship titles since becoming a professional player, is a record in the history of world football.
And this award from our newspaper, to confirm that we are not just facing a legend, but the greatest”, MARCA wrote in the message of the ceremony to honor Messi with the special award.“And if we talk about legacy, what better memory than the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where Messi led Argentina to their third World Cup title in history, after 1978 and 1986. This was the pinnacle of his career to date, the trophy he had longed for so much.”
