Barça, the club where the Argentine soccer player achieved glory, congratulated its former player Lionel Messi for the world championship after winning with his team the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
One of Lionel Messi’s greatest dreams, along with the Argentine National Team, was to be world champion. After years of trying, they succeeded after defeating France on penalties in a game of titans at the Lusail Iconic Stadium.
Both fans of the Catalan club and their fans, did not fail to express their congratulations to the “Pulga”, affectionate nickname that the player received among his fans.
FCB posted an image on its Twitter account of the Argentine star wearing his national team’s jersey and next to it, a picture of a younger Messi wearing the Barça jersey and holding the World Cup.
The image is accompanied by a greeting that reads: “Lionel Andrés Messi Cuccittini SOS CHAMPION OF THE WORLD”.
With the Catalan team, Messi won four Champions League and ten league titles, among other great achievements that made him the greatest idol in the history of the Catalan club.
The world championship: a dream come true
With the highest title for a player and a national soccer team, Lionel adds a new title to his list of honors. The one he always longed for: the World Cup.
Meanwhile, thousands of Argentine fans gathered last night at the Arc de Triomf in Barcelona to celebrate the Albiceleste’s victory over France.
Since the end of the match between the two teams, fans poured into the streets of the Catalan capital, particularly in this emblematic point of the city where they celebrated the victory.
They sang in a festive tone while proudly wearing their Argentina National Team jerseys and the flags of the country.
Messi speaks out on social networks

In total, the player scored seven goals at the Qatar 2022 World Cup and received the award for the best player of the entire tournament.
It’s the best day of your life. This is what the current PSG striker said in his emotional post.
Messi’s message:
“World Champions! I dreamed it so many times, I wanted it so much that I still can’t believe it… Many thanks to my family, to all those who support me and also to all those who believed in us. Once again we have shown that when we Argentines fight united and together we are capable of achieving whatever we set our minds to”.
