Argentina striker Lionel Messi commented on the 2-0 victory over Peru in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying match.
Lionel Messi, Getty Images"This Argentina team is impressive, it is growing, it is getting better. If you compare it with Pep's Barca... But Barcelona is the best team in history. Isn't it too much for us? But I think this team is very close to it and showed it by winning the Copa America and the World Cup. This is a great achievement.
We have great players. No matter who is playing in the squad, you can always tell it's Argentina because we have a very distinct style that identifies us in many ways, and we like that. Wherever we play, we are always the protagonist and we want to have the ball. We feel very good and enjoy playing this way," Messi was quoted as saying by Ole.
