Argentina proved doubters wrong – Messi

Agen Bola Terpercaya Cityholidaybet Reported - Lionel Messi says Argentina have proved the doubters wrong despite losing the World Cup final 1-0 to Germany on Sunday. Mario Gotze's extra-time strike was the difference between the sides after Messi, Gonzalo Higuain and Rodrigo Palacio had missed golden opportunities in each half of the encounter. The 27-year-old was surprisingly awarded the Golden Ball for the best player of the tournament after the game, with the likes of Diego Maradona and Alessandro Nesta questioning that decision on Monday. But Messi is insistent that Argentina displayed their quality in Brazil and already has his eyes set on further success with the national side in the future. "We gave everything we had and we couldn't achieve our goal. But we gave joy to our country by reaching the final," the Albiceleste captain said. "When we travelled to Brazil, there were a lot of doubts around us from the people and the media, but it made us stronger than ever. We want to keep working to give more joy to the country."
