I have a feeling that she might win, and trump might take over after six months. I hope I'm wrong.

omooba969:
Manchester city 0 - 4 Southampton

dustmalik:
That was a foul, and the goal shouldn't have stood. The decisions I see these are ridiculous and don't make sense. You lose total control when you are in the air and get nudged, it's common sense.

This same thing would be disallowed in a different game. What is the point of VAR?

Mercylike:
Almiron come and see oo

Peacecore:
That's my prayer, let him decide that for the sake us, his fans sometimes I get angry at Leo when he cares less about goals Aswear. I want him to silent that desert lord completely lemme see what they'll have to say again

Peacecore:

Leo Messi collected the award recognizing him as the player with the most titles in the history of soccer

Leo Messi collected the award recognizing him as the player with the most titles in the history of soccer from Juan Ignacio Gallardo, director of MARCA, and Jorge Mas, owner of Inter Miami. The Argentine star expressed his gratitude for the award.

"We already have a long-standing relationship with MARCA. They were very good to choose an Argentine and a Catalan. They are my two homes. It's where I'm happy. But today we are also in a place where we are very happy. Without knowing me, they were very right"

The Chase Stadium was the venue for the award ceremony. Numerous personalities gathered to honor Messi as the champion of champions: 46 collective titles and 56 individual titles adorn an almost unattainable list of honors.


Do you remember your first title as a kid?
:

"I saw pictures of my first trophy as a kid, but I don't remember it. Surely, like some of my children, I wasn't aware of everything that was to come. I enjoyed soccer from a very young age. It's my passion.


Do you count titles?:

"I don't count titles. Mostly the individual ones. It was spectacular to see the video. A lot of things go through my head. We've also had some difficult moments. Not everything is pretty. The disappointments helped me to grow".


Argentina National Team:

"I love playing soccer. I was recently in a packed Monumental with Argentina, chanting my name and that of my teammates. I've been through a lot of bad times with Argentina and I'm grateful for the moment I'm living now. I'm taking advantage of it because time is running out. The love I have for this sport is very great. We came here to make this club bigger, I didn't come here to retire. We are lucky to win so many titles."

Messi's thanks:

"Thank you very much for this recognition, both the work and the drawing. I know it was with great affection because of what they told me and we are going to find a little place for it because it deserves it".

Next goal or dream?:

"I was able to fulfill all my dreams and achieved many more than I dreamed of as a kid. God gave it to me. I was able to achieve the biggest dream of a player, which is a World Cup. I won many titles in the club of my life, which is Barcelona. I also won in Paris and now with Inter. I'm fighting to continue to achieve many more things".


World Cup 2026?:

Things pass by and I don't get ahead of myself. I try to enjoy day by day. When the time comes we'll see, I don't like to accelerate times. I hope I can continue to perform at this level to feel good and be happy. That's more important to me than whether I'm going to make it or not.

Thiago, Mateo and Ciro's criticism:

"Our children will reproach me for not being here. Now they understand everything. I love what I do. I enjoy being on the field. The other day I enjoyed the Monumental chanting my name and that's the best. I have fought hard for this moment to come and I enjoy it more than ever. When the end is near... you value many more things. Coming here was not a retirement. It was to make a very new club great. We are close to continuing to win titles."

Aswear Pendu will always regret the day he picked a race against the GOAT. He's just dia scoring cheap goals against nomads

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Lionel Messi and Inter Miami have another trophy, along with home-field advantage throughout the Major League Soccer playoffs.

Messi scored twice in the final minutes of the first half, goalie Drake Callender stopped a penalty kick in the 84th minute and Inter Miami beat the defending MLS Cup champion Columbus Crew 3-2 on Wednesday night, wrapping up the Supporters Shield — given annually to the team with the best regular-season record

It was Messi’s 46th major trophy won for club or country, extending his record for the most by any men’s soccer player in history. And it becomes the second he has won with Inter Miami, this Supporters Shield being added to the Leagues Cup trophy the Herons claimed shortly after Messi joined the club in 2023.

Luis Suarez also scored for Inter Miami, which will open the playoffs at home in the final weekend of October to start a best-of-three first round series. If the team wins that series, it would have the right to host every match it plays the rest of the season — an Eastern Conference semifinal (scheduled for Nov. 23 or 24), the East final (Nov. 3

Almiron I hope you dey receive salary from Messi sha. Jokes apart! You don really try for Messi on Nairaland.

The footballer is setting up 525 Rosario, a Miami and Los Angeles-based banner that plans to tackle film, TV and branded commercial content.

One of the world’s most recognizable sports stars is joining the fray to launch his own production company.

Lionel Messi, the footballer who jumped to the MLS Beckham-style in a late-career move to play for Inter Miami, has set up a film and TV banner titled 525 Rosario, a reference to his hometown address in Argentina. It’ll set up shop in Miami as well as Los Angeles.

The shingle was formed as a joint venture between the Messi family and Smuggler Entertainment, the production company behind the Apple TV+ series Messi’s World Cup: The Rise of a Legend and Messi Meets America. 525 Rosario will get a CEO in Tim Pastore, who also runs Smuggler, produced Messi’s World Cup, and holds producing credits on titles like Free Solo and Jane Goodall doc Jane.

The plan is for 525 Rosario to tackle editorial content, presumably more unscripted docs, as well as family-friendly fare and commercial branded storytelling in partnership with advertisers. The new joint venture will be repped by WME

"Entertainment has always been a passion for me whether that be on the pitch or in other areas. I’m really motivated by the opportunity to pursue the project we created with Smuggler Entertainment and to expand it further to create content and experiences on a global scale through this new venture,” stated Messi.


In launching 525 Rosario, Messi joins fellow global stars like LeBron James (The SpringHill Co., Est. 2008), Steph Curry (Unanimous Media, Est. 2018), Peyton Manning (Omaha Productions, Est. 2020), Tom Brady (199 Productions, Est. 2020), Serena Williams (Nine Two Six Productions, Est. 2023) and Naomi Osaka (Hana Kuma, Est. 2022) in looking to directly produce content to sell to buyers that have increasingly turned to sports figures.

The production shingle marks an expansion for an athlete-star who ranks as the third-highest-paid sports figure globally, with $135 million in on- and off-field earnings in the past year, per Forbes’ 2024 tally.

“This new venture aims to highlight and build upon everything Leo Messi stands for through not only massive premium content on a global scale but also community outreach and family-focused initiatives,” noted Pastore. “We are very grateful to Leo and his family for the opportunity to create and partner on media experiences for local and worldwide audiences while pushing the boundaries of traditional genres.”

A statement attributed to the Messi family adds, “The goal remains to inspire and connect with people around the world in a completely new way, and we are looking forward to this venture. We would like to continue advancing in the entertainment sector, bringing new initiatives and productions with global reach through innovative storytelling, programming, and experiences.”
