Lionel Messi, the Paris Saint -Germain star and the Argentine national team, revealed that he was pressured by his family, especially his son Thiago before the start of the World Cup in Qatar 2022.
A few days before the start of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, Messi had a lengthy conversation with the Argentine newspaper “Ole” at his home in Paris.
And if his wife or kids are putting any pressure on him there in Paris? Messi replied: “There is a great tension in the family, just like Argentina, especially Antonella, Thiago watching videos of the team all the time, all the matches available and opponents and when we go and when to play the first match, it is tense, and the truth is that it puts great pressure on me.
”
“I am not a person who gives or makes promises, and I always believe that God is the one who decides, and I am grateful for everything that happens to me in football and in my life,” he noted.
He continued: “At this stage of my career, the desire to obtain something different from another person has been too early, in my career what I did, but on the personal level . ..
I adore the various characters and their unique personalities and ways of existing, but I am unsure if I could have been any of them.”
Messi commented on the request of some of the fans and opponents his shirt, and sometimes having to refuse, saying: “Sometimes players come to exchange the shirt, so I tell them that I promised another player already, and here some of them look at me slightly and their condition . ..
You lie and refuse to give it to me, but I already made a promise to someone.”
He continued: “Most of the time I exchange shirts in all matches, but the issue of the fans is happening more recently, I was panic in the last team’s match against Honduras in Miami, when security enters and collided with me, but in general they are very nice signs of love for the person, to the point of doing things Like this, ignoring what might happen to them, you really don’t know what to do when it happens.
‘We are always grateful for all love, and are enthusiastic like you, and also to hope that we will provide our best and fight, we will fight against everyone because this group of players are playing all of their matches in the same way, we will play in the best way, and I hope that God will help us,’ Messi said as he concluded his speech.
