Lionel Messi has been warned by Cristiano Ronaldo after Argentina’s World Cup triumph | Football | Sport
“World champions! I dreamed it so many times. I wanted it so much that I still haven’t come to ground, I can’t believe it,” he wrote on Instagram. Thank you very much to my family, to all who support me and also to all who believed in us.
“We demonstrated once again that Argentines when we fight together and united we are capable of achieving what we set out to do. The praise belongs to this group, which is above individuals. It was the strength of all fighting for the same dream that was also the dream of all Argentines and we did it!
“Go Argentina! We are seeing each other very soon.” Messi is flying back to Argentina with the squad to join the mass celebrations that have engulfed the country. He should enjoy the adulation, he has earned it. But he shouldn’t be seduced into spoiling a wonderful legacy.
