Enzo once wrote a thousand-word letter to persuade Messi to stay.

"6 years ago, he used a long letter to persuade Messi to return to the national team, and 6 years later, he stood alongside his idol, lifting the World Cup. His name is Enzo Fernandez, the future core of Argentine football.

Enzo was born in San Martin, Argentina, in 2001, and thanks to his exceptional football talent, he was signed by River Plate club at the age of 5. His idol has always been the Argentine football icon, Messi!

Let's go back to the 2016 Copa America final, where Argentina faced Chile and it went to a penalty shootout. Messi, as the captain, stepped up first but unexpectedly sent the ball over the crossbar, and Argentina ultimately lost the championship. This was the third consecutive major tournament final for Argentina, yet they fell short of winning each time.


After the match, Messi left with tears of frustration, and many extreme fans blamed Messi for everything, even publicly burning Messi's national team jersey, calling him a coward. At that moment, Messi was in a state of despair, and with a heavy heart, he made the most difficult decision of his career: he announced his retirement from the Argentine national team.

While everyone was criticizing Messi, 15-year-old Enzo, regardless of being called names by fans nationwide, wrote a heartfelt letter to persuade Messi to stay. ""Every day, more than 40 million fans demand perfection from you, but they don't understand that you are just a regular person, Leo, please stay and be yourself."" Although it's unclear whether Messi saw this heartfelt confession, shortly thereafter, Messi decided to return to the national team.

It was at this moment that a seed of determination to play alongside Messi started to grow in Enzo's heart. Just 6 years later, at the age of 21, Enzo finally realized his dream of playing alongside Messi! He put on the blue and white jersey to represent Argentina in the World Cup! In a crucial match against Mexico, Enzo came on as a substitute in the second half. Following a pass from his idol Messi, he dribbled into the penalty area and scored a beautiful curved shot. This not only marked Enzo's first goal for the national team but also helped the team maintain their hopes of advancing!


After the goal, Messi and Enzo embraced tightly. Perhaps Messi never imagined that the fan who wrote him a letter 6 years ago to convince him to stay would now be saving the team in the World Cup! Enzo has had an outstanding performance in this World Cup and rightfully earned the title of the tournament's best newcomer.

When dreams become reality, Enzo's era in Argentina is just beginning."
