Lionel Messi Announces Retirement From International Football: 'I Leave With Peace'

An era has come to an end. One of the most decorated athletes in the history of sports and one of the most sought after footballer in the globe, Lionel Messi has finally called time on his illustrious international career that lasted exactly two decades. The little boy from Rosario came as an outsider but perishes away as the man who came, who saw and left after conquering it all.

Lionel Messi’s retirement from international football marks the end of an extraordinary chapter in sporting history. But long before the World Cup trophies, record-breaking goals and global fame, Messi was simply a young boy from Rosario with a dream and a serious challenge standing in his way

As a child, Messi was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency, and his smaller physical stature became a source of concern as he pursued football. His treatment was expensive, his future in the sport was uncertain, and there were moments when his physical development appeared capable of limiting his opportunities. Yet his journey eventually took him from childhood uncertainty to becoming one of the most successful footballers in history.

We'll miss you Messi ! Messi ! Messi ! Messi !

"We have to move forward, and for that it is very important to become Atmanirbhar Bharat."

PM Narendra Modi congratulated the countrymen on India registering 7.8 per cent economic growth, saying the achievement had filled the nation with happiness.

Urging people to promote domestic consumption, Modi advised them against travelling abroad purely for leisure.

"If you go for travel abroad just for leisure, you should not do it. You do weddings outside, in foreign countries, you should not do it. You should live the mantra of Made in India, and if not necessary, you should not even buy gold," the PM said
