To win the FIFA World Cup was Lionel Messiās biggest dream as a soccer player. He returned to PSG after a long break he took after lifting the trophy at Qatar 2022, but surprisingly he didnāt show the medal he earned in the international tournament at the Parc de Princes.
Lionel Messi was the leader for the Argentinian national team during Qatar 2022. In an exciting final, the Albiceleste defeated France on penalties to win their third FIFA World Cup.

Lionel Messi didnāt take his FIFA World Cup medal to his first game after returning to PSG
Qatar 2022 was probably the most important moment for Lionel Messi during his career. He managed to give his country a new title and earned thethe missing trophy for his show case.
Lionel Messi faced his teammate Kylian Mbappe in the final. PSG had two of its biggest players in the fight for the title, but it was the Argentinian who won and took the trophy back home.
Almost all the Argentinian players who earned the title received a tribute by their teams during their return after Qatar 2022, but Lionel Messi was not one of those.
In the game against Angers, Lionel Messi surprised everybody by not taking his FIFA World Cup medal to the Parc de Princes, contrary to what his Argentinian teammates did with his clubs.
This move is understandable as Lionel Messi belongs to PSG, a French team. He probably didnāt want to hurt the teamās fans by showing it, so he kept it at home for this game.
