But after the consecration in the Copa América in Brazil, in July 2021 and with Leone Messi as a flag, everything has changed. Because he played with a renewed team and very hungry for glory.
Because, moreover, it seemed that a curse was weighing on the back of the Albiceleste after the three finals lost (World Cup in Brazil 2014, Copa América in Chile 2015 and Copa América Centenario United States 2016). However, the team managed to overtake him and Messi fulfilled his great desire: to win a title with the Biancocelesti. And now the speech of him in the preview of the final has come to light.
“Be Eternal: Champions of America“is the new series of Netflix which tells from the inside how the Argentine players experienced the historic conquest at the Maracana and how they faced the final against Brazil. The documentary can be viewed through the streaming platform from this Friday 3 October and is composed of three chapters.
In one of the passages of the promotional video you can see the terrible speech of the Argentine captain towards his teammates. Leone Messi, command voice in the locker room, was heard and everything was recorded. Now, the sequence is surprising: “45 days without our family kids“Says Rosario.
“We had a goal and we are one step away from achieving it. This cup was to be played in Argentina and God brought it here, so that we raise it in the Maracana. To make it more beautiful for everyone, so we go out confident and serene that this will bring him home “, was the encouragement of the southpaw in the locker room before going to play the final against Brazil.

The documentary shows intimately how the players built their way to success. Interviews with national team players and members of the coaching staff are included.
The miniseries also shows Lionel Messi’s personal struggle, who has managed to establish himself as a world figure since his arrival at Barcelona, winning everything in Europe, but could not do the same with his team. Gradually, the football icon of Rosario was able to beat that stigma and achieve “the best thing in his career”.
The documentary tells how difficult it was for Paris Saint-Germain 30 to live all those moments and then be able to lift the long-awaited Copa América with the blue and white jersey.
The new Netflix production focuses on the pressures suffered by the players of the National team. In addition, the Lionel Messi phenomenon is analyzed by prominent international personalities such as Neymar Jr, Ronaldinho, Dani Alves, Xavi Hernández, Cesc Fábregas, Sergio Busquets, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba, Arturo Vidal and former Argentine players Javier Zanetti, Javier Mascherano and Pablo Aimar.
“My family has always been the one who lived it just like me, the one who suffered a lot, and at the same time tried to be strong in front of me to show me that they were fine, that there was nothing wrong but I know what they went through and that moment was like a download for everyone, ”said Lionel Messi through a shared statement from Netflix.
“It’s difficult, so many years of suffering and in the end being able to make it I think it’s not only mine, but it also belongs to my wife, my daughters and also to the team, to my father. After all that suffering they have had, to be able to give them that Cup and tell them ‘that’s all, I did it’ “, said Ángel Di María, who scored the winning goal against Brazil in the final.
And he added, visibly moved: “I have thousands of trophies, but not like this, there are none like this, I think this was the only thing I wanted“.
