This cup we got is also from all those who did not make it in the previous World Cups we played, like in 2014 in Brazil, where they all deserved it for how they fought until the same final, worked hard and wanted it as much as I did.
It s also from Diego who encouraged us from heaven.
And of all those who spent the time always supporting the national team without looking so much at the result but the desire we always put into it, also when things didn t go as we wanted.
Many times failure is part of the journey and learning and without the disappointments it is impossible for success to come.
Thank you very much from my heart! Let s go Argentina!!!
Messi s latest Instagram message came after his photo holding the World Cup trophy became the most popular post in the social media platform s history, amassing 65 million likes.
He followed that up by uploading a picture on Tuesday of him in bed holding the famous trophy, which was liked over 40 million times in the nine hours after it was posted.
After the country s government declared Tuesday a national holiday, Messi and his team-mates landed back in Argentina and were greeted by mass crowds of adoring fans.
