In 2012, a 12-year-old Julian Alvarez met his idol Lionel Messi as a fan. A decade later, he won the WORLD CUP with him as a teammate. 

In 2018, a 26-year-old Emi Martinez was watching the World Cup as a fan in the stands. This weekend, he was the starting goaltender for a World Cup victory. 

For Messi’s entire career, people have debated if he was the greatest of all time. After Sunday’s win, the debate is over.
