"I have nothing left but to thank the jersey. For twenty years, I fought and struggled even in the worst moments, I gave everything I had, and I always wanted to play for the national team. It will hurt not to be a member of the national team anymore. If I could, I would spend my entire life here because playing for Argentina is the most wonderful thing in the world. (...) I think I am talking more now than ever before, but that is because I don’t want this moment to end. But I think the time has come for me to retire," Messi said, thanking the people of the stadium and his teammates. #Messi #futball #búcsú (translated)
