Messi brought victory to Argentina youth team 20 years ago
According to tradition, on this very day, July 2, 2005, the final match of the youth world championship took place. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.

The final of this tournament was held in Utrecht, Netherlands, where the youth teams of Argentina and Nigeria faced each other. The final match was exciting and intense.

The main hero of this game was 18-year-old Lionel Messi. Messi scored two goals from penalties, leading Argentina to a 2:1 victory.

This victory was a significant achievement for the Argentina youth team. Subsequently, in August 2005, Lionel Messi made his debut for the senior national team.

Although his first game was unsuccessful, it was very memorable, as Messi received a red card immediately after coming on as a substitute. Today, 38-year-old Messi is active at the club level with "Inter Miami."

This information highlights important turning points in the young player's life and speaks of his successes in sports. Zamin.uz's news section provided information about these historical events.
