Messi said: “I said it many years ago, I was sure that I was going to be world champion. It was before losing the final in Brazil.

“Then it happened. I had something that I knew that God wanted me to be world champion, that he was going to give it to me. I always trusted that.

“There were many stumbling blocks along the way, because I had a really bad time, but in the end it happened.”
