“We gave absolutely everything, but it wasn’t enough to win the cup. But we think that, maybe, we still gave the fans some joy. We went to Brazil with many doubts, but we came back stronger than ever. We will keep on working hard to bring joy to the country.”

Lionel Messi wins Best International Athlete (ESPY) for the second time
Lionel Messi’s Rosario home town club have offered him some support after Argentina’s Copa America defeat. During Sunday’s match supporters of Newell’s Old Boys revealed a huge banner in support of the FC Barcelona star: “Messi: Being the best is what separates us from the rest.”
Newell’s fans have not forgot the time Messi spent at the club. He left at the age of 12 before travelling to Barcelona with his family, but with this message they have expressed their support and solidarity after the fierce critism that Messi has received in Argentina after the Copa America.
“Don’t write about him, don’t try to describe him. Just watch him.”
I prefer to win titles with the team before individual prizes or outscoring everyone. I’m more concerned with being a good person than being the best footballer in the world, in the end, when all this is over, what can you take with you? My hope is that when I retire that I’m remembered as a good guy. I like to score goals, but I also like to be friends with the people I play with. It’s good to be valued as a person, it’s important that they have good concept of who you are beyond being the guy that scores a lot of goals.
