#Iniesta Says Lionel #Messi Winning #FIFAWorldCup Will Not End #GOAT Argument With #Ronaldo, Others—Barcelona legend, Andres Iniesta, has insisted Lionel Messi’s World Cup win will not settle the debate on who is the greatest ever footballer.
Messi has long been considered among the best of all time.
However, many observers insisted he needed a World Cup title to cement his status alongside the likes of Pele and Diego Maradona.
Iniesta, who played together with Messi for over a decade at Barcelona, has now said the 35-year-old’s standing in the game will always be up for debate despite Argentina’s thrilling win against France on Sunday.
“For me, Messi is the best with or without [winning] a World Cup.
“I am sure anyone who doesn’t view Messi as the best will find an excuse to keep seeing it that way, regardless of whether he won the World Cup or not,” Iniesta told ESPN
