England Legend After Argentina Defeat: Watching Messi at 39 Was Incredible, You Can't Stop Him

England legend John Terry heaped praise on Argentina's superstar Lionel Messi after his two assists secured a 2-1 victory for the "Albiceleste," eliminating the "Three Lions" in the semi-finals of the 2026 World Cup.

The former Chelsea defender posted a picture of Messi on Instagram, using the acronym GOAT, which stands for "Greatest Of All Time." "Watching this man yesterday at 39 years old was incredible. The best of all time and still performing at the highest level. Argentina were good in many aspects yesterday. I'm often asked how you stop Messi. You can't, and when you try to be physical with him, it just makes him even better. He's so strong and thrives on the challenge; this man has it all," Terry further wrote.
