Lionel Messi motivates Nico Paz

Nico Paz is still talking about his World Cup start for Argentina versus Jordan and the specific moment Lionel Messi stepped up to him before kickoff. The exchange wasn't just a quick pat on the back; Messi told him directly that he trusted him a lot and explicitly advised him to play without fear. Nico admitted that while maybe for the legend it was nothing, for him it meant everything because hearing your idol say those exact words leaves you completely shocked. He noted that probably Messi doesn't even remember the interaction anymore, but Nico stated clearly that he will carry that memory with him forever.
