Gonzalo Higuaín spoke about Lionel Messi’s Copa America final speech.
Higuaín played several tournaments with Lionel Messi and the Argentina national team. They were both part of the 2010 World Cup, 2011 Copa America, 2014 World Cup where the team reached the final and the 2015 and 2016 Copa America finals.
Now retired, Gonzalo Higuaín spoke about Lionel Messi’s speech which is part of the recent Argentina documentary on Netflix. Speaking in an interview with TyC Sports, here is what he had to say:
“The speech from the other day gave me goosebumps. He doesn’t realise what he does to others, what he says comes through in a tremendous way.
“The last day he came to Miami, we had a very long chat, very nice in which we didn’t talk about football. I got to know him deeper as a person and was pleasantly surprised.

Stop blaming Higuain for those finals every one was missing
We can only feel respect for Messi and thank GOD that he embraced our beloved team with him!
Argentines or not, nevermind, you will always be in our hearts Lio!!
Let us all take a moment of silence in remembrance of those people who questioned his leadership skills.
Could you have done better??
That speech would have been in vain if higuain was playing…
