The 35-year-old will be playing in his fifth World Cup in Qatar. However, Messi is yet to win a World Cup for Argentina.
Argentine icon Lionel Messi on Thursday made a big announcement saying that the FIFA World Cup 2022 in Qatar will “surely” be his last World cup.
The 35-year-old will be playing in his fifth World Cup in Qatar. However, Messi is yet to win a World Cup for Argentina.
The closest he came to winning World Cup for his side was in 2014 when Argentina reached the final losing to Germany by a solitary goal.
Meanwhile, the Argentina star admitted he feels nervous ahead of his last appearance on world football’s biggest stage.
The two-time World Cup champions Argentina is placed in Group C and will play their first match against Saudi Arabia. The last time Argentina won a World Cup was way back in 1986 and before that in 1978.
