A great quote!

According to a report by ESPN, Javier Zanetti, the former Argentine footballer and current Inter Milan director, has stated that the pressure on Lionel Messi to win the World Cup is greater than ever.

Zanetti, who won the World Cup with Argentina in 1986, believes that Messi's incredible career achievements have raised the expectations of the Argentine fans and the media, making it even more challenging for him to deliver a World Cup title.

"Messi has been carrying the weight of the Argentine people on his shoulders for many years," Zanetti said. "The pressure is greater than ever. He has achieved everything in his career, but the World Cup is the biggest prize. He has to win it to be considered the best of all time."

Zanetti's comments come ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar, where Argentina will be looking to win their first World Cup title since 1986. Messi, who has won numerous individual awards and has led Barcelona to numerous titles, is under immense pressure to deliver a World Cup victory to cement his legacy as one of the greatest players of all time.
