WHY I LOVE MESSI

You see, despite his tremendous success, Messi will always reference the heavenly places whenever he scores a Goal. This is an acknowledgement that means a lot.

I know of players that see themselves as gods but haven't achieved as much as what Messi has achieved.

Messi's humility and his attitude of not boasting about his ability or talent but gives reference to the heavens, is one attitude I admire alot.

Another outstanding thing about him is just how it looks so easy and magical when the ball is in his legs!🤔

He is the GOAT(Greatest of all times).
A lot of people are saying he is at his peak but I'd say Expect more from Lionel Messi
