It seems Lionel Messi may have been destined to be a soccer great. A video has surfaced of 5-year old Messi destroying his peers in the game. Amazingly enough Messi was also wearing the number 10 even way back then.
Messi is now set to face a formidable German team on Sunday in the World Cup championship match. This will be the first time Messi is able to compete in a coveted championship game to win it all for his home country Argentina. It’s fair to say that if Messi and team Argentina beat Germany, then this video of 5-year old Messi embarrassing opponents is a good source of foreshadowing of the greatest that will be bestowed to him.
