Germany vs Argentina: Nothing can console me, says Lionel Messi
Messi concurred, not the marketing plan bit, but that the award meant little compared to losing a World Cup final this close. Argentina had trailed for only seven minutes in all of this World Cup.
"I don't care about the prize. I don't care about anything. Right now, nothing can console me - not the award or anything else," he said. "I wanted to take Argentina to the World Cup for all the people," Messi said.
"I believe this World Cup deserved another final because we had chances. We reached the final... but we're disappointed not to have won this game. There's a lot of anger," he added.
But Messi needn't bother. Whatever he does, it will never equal Maradona in the eyes of his countrymen. "If Messi wins the World Cup, he will come at par with Maradona. But he will never be bigger. Maradona did it on his own, Messi needs a team to do it," said Rosariobased lawyer, Osvaldo Burgos, before the final.
