'Wow! MESSI still gives 1 on 1 assist in 2019. Incredibly unselfish my GOAT'.
'Look at Messi. The most unselfish player out there. Just giving it to Suarez so he can score as well.'

Great gesture..A true captain. He knows a team is made of 11 players. Giving all of them some satisfaction make the team stronger and build atmosphere of calmness. Thats why messi is love so much. This is what i called a complete player. None can compete with him on completeness. He set the standard so high that today we measure a player on and outside the field.
