Messi’s confession about the tax office’s persecution

Goals, victories and titles can be shared with moments of sadness and disappointment. That’s the life of footballers, who are not apart from destiny. Despite being the best, most admired player in the world, Lionel Messi is not an exception. As he admits himself in this interview with SPORT:

You’ve cried for Argentina… and for Barcelona?

Yes, there have been tears with this club. There have been a lot of years, a lot of moments. I remember the Champions League semifinal against Inter, the other semi against Chelsea, when I missed a penalty. We let slip a chance to reach the final in those years and to win another Champions League. We deserved to win another Champions League.

Iniesta’s spoken about depression, have you experienced anything similar?

I’ve not suffered from depression, as Andres has said [about himself]. But I have been through some sad moments, like when you don’t achieve the objectives you’ve set out. Like in any job, when things don’t work out, you suffer.
