Messi should retire right now. It’s done man. Crowning moment. Best of all time. And had his best World Cup at 35. First of His Name, King of the Andals and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm.

A World Cup trophy doesn’t make Lionel Messi the GOAT.
The last 15 years has made him the GOAT.
This is just additional confirmation.
