Lionel Messi: Argentina didn`t have much time to rest, which was a concern. I`m glad we`re in 1/4

5.12.2022

Argentina captain Lionel Messi spoke about the game with Australia (2:1) at the 2022 World Cup.

I am very glad that another goal has been achieved, another step has been taken towards our main goal.

We didn’t have much time to rest, and this caused concern, because it was clear that there would be a lot of struggle in the match. We managed to open the scoring, score the second goal and take control of the game. The opponent also scored and made life difficult for us at the end of the game, but this is natural for the World Cup.

The feeling is incredible, and it`s great to share this moment with the fans. We know what they went through to come here. The energy coming from them is incredible.

Today I found out that I played the thousandth match in my career. I live in the moment and enjoy what we are going through right now. I`m glad we`re in the quarter-finals, ` Messi said.
