🗣️ Zinedine Zidane on his first encounter with Lionel Messi in 2005:
"We were going to the Camp Nou to play El Clásico, our concern were only players like Ronaldinho, Deco, Xavi and Eto’o… But Ronaldo told us that his only worry was a kid called Messi.
"On the field we dominated Barça totally, but as soon as Rijkaard brought that kid on the field, the kid turned the game around. They had totally dominated us, he played like a robot, he won every duel he had until he got a penalty for Ronaldinho and they equalized.
"It was from that day that I knew that Messi would be a great football legend" 🤩
