I like him, but he's a little Messi.

Alright see ya guys it's been fun.

You can't spell Messiah without him.

His nickname is La Pulga, or La Pulga Atomica - The Atomic Flea. He is 5 ft 7.

He had a growth deficiency as a child and needed steroids to help him reach his full size.

Some Argentines don't like him and refer to him as The Catalan.

Argentina president Mauricio Macri said "It is a gift from God to have the best player in the world in a footballing country like ours... Lionel Messi is the greatest thing we have in Argentina and we must take care of him."

Congratulations to the greatest footballer of all time, who has tonight scored his 20th and 21st league goals of the season.

20+ goals a season in the league, eleven years running.

🇦🇷⚽🐐

I absolutely love the lad. Love him. It will be a dark day for sport when he retires.

Class tonight.
