Lionel Messi’s wife Antonela Roccuzzo has praised her husband after Argentina lost 1–0 to Spain in the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.
In an emotional Instagram post, Antonela acknowledged Messi’s strength, resilience, and unwavering character, expressing deep admiration and love.
This was her statement on Instagram:
You’ll always be the best. Not only because of your talent, but because you never stopped being yourself. No matter what happens, you never give up. You always fight until the very end and give absolutely everything until the last second.
That strength, that mentality, and your ability to get back up again and again are what make you unique. Thank you for showing us every day that true success is built through hard work, sacrifice, perseverance, and never losing your essence.
You are the greatest role model for our children and an inspiration to millions of people. I admire you more than words can express, and I feel incredibly proud to walk through this life by your side.
I love you so much. 🤍
Softfootball believes Messi has had a historic international career, unmatched in longevity, consistency, and impact. Even though he missed out on the 2026 World Cup, with Lamine Yamal leading Spain to victory, Messi’s legacy remains firmly intact.
