This is my last World Cup: Lionel Messi
Meanwhile, a while back, the 35-year-old announced that the now ongoing World Cup in Qatar is going to be his last. However, he hasn’t announced his retirement from the game after the tournament.
“There’s some anxiety and nerves at the same time. It is the last one,” Messi said in an interview with Star Plus.
Talking about Messi, he played his first World Cup in 2006 which was played in Germany. Eight years later, his side came to winning the title as they played Germany in the final. However, they lost by 1-0. The ongoing World Cup will be his last chance to lay his hands on the title before moving on.
