The third day of matches in the 2022 World Cup could be the beginning of a historical journey for history’s greatest footballer: Lionel Messi and Argentina kick off their campaign with the Group C opener against Saudi Arabia in Al Daayen, and the GOAT will be hoping for a successful start to the biggest tournament of his life.
Messi is the best to ever do it, and it doesn’t matter that he doesn’t play for Barcelona anymore. He’ll always be the GOAT and Barça fans’ favorite player, and his search for World Cup glory has been almost as important to Culers as what their club does.
