The Argentine football icon, 39,  shared a heartfelt message, reflecting on his extraordinary career and expressing his gratitude to the country he represented throughout his international journey. 




Posting a photo of himself holding the Argentine jersey with the word 'Gracias', Messi wrote: “All has been said. And now, all is done. And the only words left... are from the bottom of my heart: Thank you, Argentina.” 




Lionel Messi finished his international career with 208 senior caps, the most of any player in the team's history, with his 126 goals for Argentina.


 


He won the 2022 World Cup and two Copa Americas during his 21-year spell on the international stage.


 


Messi, who played his last game for Argentina against Benin on Wednesday night, October 7, created the first two goals before getting on the scoresheet himself in his country's 3- 0 win.

Jay Boogie, real name Daniel Nsikan, has shared new photos while calling out people who turn to enemies when he denies them his attention.  The cross dresser, who cried out for help 3 years ago after claiming his surgery at a Lagos clinic was botched, showed off his curvier physique in a revealing yellow dress.  In the caption, he wrote: "Some of you are actually embarrassing. You’ll slide into my DMs trying to get my attention, and the moment I don’t respond, suddenly you hate me, start creating fake accounts, throwing subliminals and monitoring my every move. Babe, you wanted my attention, you didn’t get it, and now you’re trying to punish me for not wanting you?  "Imagine being so hurt by rejection that you turn into a full-time hater of somebody you were once desperately trying to get close to. You don’t hate me, sweetheart, you hate that I didn’t want you. There’s a difference. The funniest part is that you think the fake accounts make you look unbothered when, in re...

Government views this development with concern and keen interest, particularly given the longstanding cordial relations and strong people-to-people ties between our two countries. The decision appears misaligned with the principles of reciprocity, equity and mutu...

WW2 'earthquake' bomb explodes in Poland during attempt to defuse i image caption About 750 residents had been evacuated from the area The chance the bomb - at the bottom of a Baltic Sea shipping canal - would detonate had been put at 50-50 and all the divers were unharmed. About 750 residents had been evacuated near the port city of Swinoujscie. The RAF dropped the Tallboy or "earthquake" bomb in a raid in 1945 which sank the German cruiser Lützow. Swinoujscie was part of Germany and called Swinemünde at the time of the bombardment. The shock of the latest detonation was reportedly felt in parts of the city and a video shows the blast throwing up a large column of water into the air. The bomb was 6m (19ft) long and weighed 5.4 tonnes, nearly half of which was its explosives. The bomb was embedded at a depth of 12m  and only its nose was sticking out.
