Lionel Messi recently celebrated 15 years wearing the number 10 shirt for the Argentina national team. None other than Diego Maradona gave the number 10 shirt to Messi. It was March 28, 2009, in the match against Venezuela in the 2010 World Cup qualifying round in South America. In that match, Messi scored a goal and had another assist, significantly contributing to Argentina's 4-0 victory over Venezuela. Since then, Lionel Messi has worn the number 10 shirt for Argentina in 145 matches, and also delighted fans by bringing home the 2022 World Cup championship title.

The only thing is, Messi, the star who won the Golden Ball title 8 times, did not have complete joy from the 15th anniversary of wearing the number 10 shirt of the Argentina national team. All the noise started when El Xokas, a famous Spanish Streamer with more than 4 million followers on social network Twitch, made a strong criticism of Messi's personality during a live stream. When mentioning football stars who show confidence, Joaquin Dominguez Portela (El Xokas's real name) immediately mentions names like Cristiano Ronaldo or Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

However, when the conversation started mentioning Messi as an example of success accompanied by humility, Xokas changed his attitude. It's even more remarkable when the famous Spanish Streamer fiercely attacked Messi, the star currently playing for Inter Miami Club in the American Professional Soccer League (MLS). “What Messi tries to do is make people happy. But that's false modesty to everyone. No one is that humble. It is impossible. What Messi did was deceive people,” Xokas said in a harsh voice. Still according to Xokas, there is no one like that in real life and if you keep believing in Messi, you are nothing more than a fool.

On the one hand, trying to attack Messi, on the other hand, Xokas used Andres Iniesta, Messi's former teammate at Barca, as an example of the most honest and humble person the Spanish Streamer has ever seen in the sports world. now. “Iniesta is far different from Messi. He deserves respect for his humility and simplicity both on and off the field. That is a respectable personality among football stars," Xokas added.

Having said that, Lionel Messi was previously described as "fake and provocative" in the autobiography of former Real Madrid goalkeeper Jezry Dudek. “Lionel Messi is fake and provocative, just like Barcelona and Pep Guardiola. They are ready to provoke you and can do it to perfection. That hurt Jose Mourinho and the whole Real Madrid team a lot,” that's what Dudek wrote in his autobiography.
