Messi clearly saved his final energy for the WC in 2022 he put his heart and soul into it because it was the one trophy that evaded him and he finally got his hands on it when Argentina defeated France in the final in a penalty shootout after finishing 3-3 after extra time you see him playing for PSG and you just know that his heart isn't in it anymore he's won everything there's to win both as part of a team and on an individual basis so what else has he got left to achieve he's entitled to see out his career how he chooses his GOAT status is already assured imo and he will always be an all time legend of the game and it will be many generations if ever until you see a player like him again

1. During the treble winning celebration, he got beyond drunk and shocked the entire team. Puyi, Pique, Rafa, Alves, Bojan, Xavi, Iniesta and everyone else in that team during that time laughed and went bonkers reacting to him. It is by far the greatest Leo Messi memory I have. I still watch it every now and then to smile. He was so drunk that day. Id love to know the story of the next day. They surely teased him for weeks for that crazy night. 2. That ultra instinct dribbling past half the team and goal against Getafe. Ankara Messi, 3. Copa America and World Cup celebration with him lifting the last 2 trophies he deserved. It was a fairytale ending for the GOAT. And thousands more. For 17 years, he did thousands of great moments.

Me too, it was scientifically proven impossible,
My best Messi moment is his first Classico when he scored a hattrick.
his best moment was finally winning the world cup, but if we are talking about in game special moment his goal in the Copa del Rey final against Athletic club was just about the most ridiculous thing I saw him do and it encapsulates him as a player perfectly, the close control of the ball dribbling through multiple defenders slotting it into an impossibly small window with immense precision. but his biggest moment for me would be that goal against Mexico in the world cup it felt like he gave CPR to his dying team in real life, from that moment Argentina woke up and started playing well it was unbelievable.
There are so many Messi memories it's definitely difficult to choose from for me the best moment is when he won the biggest title off them all & that's when he won the world cup

Honestly, picking a favorite Lionel Messi moment would be such a crime because it would mean putting one over the others, and it's so tough to do as a Messi fan. Although if I had to pick one forcefully, that famous 3rd goal against RM in the 3-2 at Bernabeu, that was probably my loudest scream in my life along with Messi's 3rd goal in the WC Final. This is not my favourite 'goal', it's just an incredible 'moment'

I think it’s more the celebration after the goal. The second goal in the 2011 UCL semis was unreal. In real time it was an unimaginable feat. Having said that I don’t even think that’s the greatest moment. The man made outrageous things seem normal.
The game against Zaragoza at La Romareda in 2010/11. He scored the wonder goal, then earned a penalty late on and because Ibrahimovic was having a stinker of a match he let zlatan take the spot kick. I had my head in my hands most of the match, barely able to believe what I was seeing. A genius..

Messi’s career makes a perfect script for a movie It’s unreal …
it is impossible there‘s millions of little genius to mindblowingly insane moments most don‘t really appreciate cause they keep going on about the biggest games but he does things similar in every game, it‘s no coincidence.
My favorite is copa del rey final goal against atletico bilbao. He thinks, hey I'm gonna score, there are other players but I'll just dribble around them like they weren't there, and he did.
Lionel Messi vs AC Milan. Down 0-2 from the first leg. Scoring the first 2 impossible goals in quick succession to level the tie and kick off the comeback. An incredible man.
As an Asian and because of timezone, used to be a fan of PL and Manchester United since 2000 and used to admire two no. 7s until CR7. But When Messi showed in my eye since 2010 when I can watch Laliga via internet, realised he is in another level than all players I have ever seen. He has been a GOAT even before most prestigious trophy, worldcup.
Messi.. What an achiever
what really actually got me to think he was an alien like genuinely spooked me even when i was familiar with his game was a scene out of the 2019 copa del rey final vs valencia:receives the ball on the right side outside of the box, flicks the ball with the outside of his left foot between two defenders, takes the ball down with his right in front of another defender and shoots with outside of his left foot to the inside of the left crossbar all within less than a second. trust me you gotta see it
The spear in Real-Barca 2-3, that goal on Betis pitch and many many many many more others, all those ending with kissing the WC
2019 Messi was something else

My favorite memories are when conmebol gave messi a int comp every other year to help him finally win a title for the huge sprawling historically serial winners argetnina in a minnow infested continent where brazil was the only worthy competition, when he got all the praise for his teammates hard work, when he was given credit for the 2006 ucl which he had no distinct part of, when he got routinely embarassed on the biggest ucl stages annually. RONALDO IS OUR GOAT. THE STREETS PICK CRISTIANO "THE GOAT" RONALDO.
The entire Messi career is a moment for me that quickly went by.
