Almost 48 hours after Argentina were crowned three-time World Cup champions in Qatar, the celebrations continue.
Leo Messi has published several posts on his Instagram account (with record number of interactions included), but the last of them was tremendously special.
The Argentine star has written an emotional letter remembering the road to victory in the World Cup, and also mentioned those who could not be there.

These are the words of Leo Messi:
“From Grandoli to the World Cup in Qatar, almost 30 years passed. It was almost three decades in which the ball gave me many joys and also some sadness. I always had the dream of being World Champion and I never wanted to stop trying, even though I knew it might never happen,” he wrote.
“This Cup we won also belongs to all those who did not win it in the previous World Cups we played, like in 2014 in Brazil, where everyone deserved it for how they fought until the very end, worked hard and wanted it as much as I did…. and we deserved it even in that damn final.
“It also belongs to Diego [Maradona] who cheered us on from heaven. And of all those who always supported the National Team without looking so much at the result but at the desire we always had, even when things did not work out the way we wanted them to.
“And of course, it is for this entire beautiful group that was formed and the coaching staff and all the people of the national team who, being anonymous, work day and night to make it easier for us.
“Failure is often part of the journey and learning, and without disappointments it is impossible for success to come.
“Thank you very much from the bottom of my heart! Let’s go Argentina!”
