In the second friendly celebration for winning the World Cup, the Argentine national team defeated Curacao. "Showman" was Leo Messi, who scored three of the seven goals of the world champions against modest opponents, reaching the figure of 102 goals for the national team.
The Albiceleste captain has only two players ahead of him who have scored more for his national team: Cristiano Ronaldo (122 goals for Portugal) and Ali Daei (109 for Iran). At the end of the match, all 23 players from Curacao, a team from the Dutch Antilles island, gathered around Messi and asked for his shirt.
The PSG champion changed shirts only with the goalkeeper of the opposing team, Eloy Room. The "extreme defender" of Dutch origin said: "After the match, Messi told me that I made some good saves.
I didn't take his shirt off even when I slept after the friendly match, in fact I will wear it every night. My friends really wanted it, but I was lucky enough to get it. I wore it at night two nights in a row, after the game with Argentina.
I will probably frame it and hang it somewhere where everyone can see it, I think in the living room. I never frame sports jerseys, I only did that with my debut jersey, but I'm definitely going to hang this one as well."
