“No. I didn’t know what Leo will say. (During team’s presentation when Leo said he will bring Champions League trophy to Camp Nou). We joked: ‘You said it, it’s up to you to do it, then!’ He surprised us but if the captain wants to win the cup so much, why wouldn’t we? It was a clear message. It’s not an obligation but we want to win it. It’s not easy, that’s for sure. It’s very hard, very difficult – like the leagues are.”
Lionel Messi and Steven Bergwijn in 2008 and in 2018
In 2008 Bergwijn with his family traveled to Barcelona to attend Barca vs Levante game at Camp Nou. When it turned out that he stays in the same hotel as FC Barcelona, he asked Messi for photo. Today they faced each other on the pitch as Bergwijn is now PSV player.
sometimes I think the argentina team expects messi to not only score, but control the midfield, as well as defend and also tell people not to do stupid things. AND also to be their coach
32 national team players from the qualified World Cup teams congratulate each other in the other’s native tongue, based on the order of qualification for Russia 2018.
