Before achieving glory with the absolute Argentine team, Lionel Messi already enjoyed the honeys of success in the lower categories, where he won the Under 20 World Cup and the Gold medal at the 2008 Olympic Games. Precisely in the youth tournament, he coincided with a player with whom he almost went to blows in concentration and now no one sees him again to end his football career.

When he began his career in the Argentine national team, the top winner of the Ballon d'Or (7) was summoned to play in the Under 20 World Cup played in the Netherlands. Although he did not start as a starter, he became the main figure of the competition and won his first trophy with the Albiceleste.
