An iconic shot from Lionel Messi

This moment is truly iconic!

The score is 1-1 between Argentina and England, it’s the 90th minute, and Messi has done everything right.

He created the equalizer and is literally exhausted. It’s a tie, we’ll go to extra time and sort this out!

McAllister hits the crossbar and puts his hand to his head in despair.

Spence is about to launch a counter-attack when suddenly Messi sprints and puts intense pressure on Spence, forcing him to make a haphazard clearance!

Messi gets the ball, dribbles past O’Reilly and Spence, and sets up Lautaro for the winning goal.

After the final whistle, Messi drops to his knees and celebrates hysterically, as if he’s playing in his first World Cup final, after a historic match where he covered 8.3 kilometers – the most distance he’s ever covered in a single World Cup game!

Imagine a player who has achieved everything in football, won a World Cup, played in two World Cup finals, is approaching forty, and still has the passion to carry his national team to this level and win with his own two hands.

An iconic moment from the people’s hero, Lionel Messi.
