America’s Cup, Messi: “Grateful to God for this moment”

“I knew this success would come at some point. I am grateful to God for giving me this moment, in Brazil and against Brazil. I think he was reserving a moment like this for me. “So Leo Messi after the triumph in the America’s Cup with his Argentina who defeated Brazil 1-0. never won anything. With the exception of the 2008 Olympic gold and an under-20 world championship, Leo Messi had always failed the appointment with the World Cup or Copa America, often at the most beautiful. So, after 4 lost finals (3 of Copa America) that medal brings tears of joy from the face of the Flea, who shares the emotion live with his three children and his wife: a video call in the middle of the field, at the end of the award ceremony, showing the proof of victory and sending kisses. ” happiness I feel is crazy, inexplicable, many times I had to go home sad, I knew that once I would have had a joy too and there was no better moment – adds the 34 year old from Rosario -. This group really deserved it, it’s something impressive, I’m very happy. I had a lot of confidence in this group, which has become very strong since the last America’s Cup, where so many good things were already coming. A group of very good people who always push forward, who never complained about anything, despite being locked up for many days without being able to see their family, but the goal was clear. It has been given to us, we have managed to be champions and the happiness is immense “.
