    2026 FIFA WC: ‘Don't Have To Be An Argentina Fan To Admire Him’, Scaloni Marvels At Messi After Record-breaking Hat-trick

    World Cup Group: Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni said Lionel Messi still amazes his teammates after the captain scored a hat-trick in a 3-0 win over Algeria in their World Cup Group J opener on Tuesday.

    With a spectacular hat-trick against Algeria, Messi also equalled Germany's Miroslav Klose for the most goals in World Cup history (16), surpassing Brazilian legend Ronaldo (15) to become the highest-scoring South American at the global showpiece.

    "It's hard to explain. We're still amazed by him, even though we see him every day. He's been the best for 20 years, and he still delivers in every match. You don't have to be an Argentina fan to admire what he's done at his age," Scaloni told reporters after the match, as per a report in Xinhua.
