20/KLOC-One day in May, 2007, a little boy in Xinjiang, holding the crumpled 35 yuan money he had saved for a year, found a PE teacher and hoped that the teacher would help him buy a football. The PE teacher was very moved and took photos and sent them to a circle of friends. Unexpectedly, this photo became popular on the Internet overnight.

Through the story of Charlick, fans and clubs from all walks of life learned that there are many children who love football and have football dreams, so batches of loving football equipment flew from all over the country.

When Messi saw the sincere eyes of the little boy in this photo, he didn't hesitate. He decided to travel more than 20,000 kilometers to visit him in China.

Messi gave the little boy a big hug and signed his name on the gift.

The little boy comes from a poor county in Xinjiang. Even if his family can only maintain food and clothing, his dream is to become a player like Messi. Messi and Khalid seem to be two completely impossible parallel lines, but because they love football, their dreams come true.

Maybe Messi saw his old self in Harry. Being caught in the rain, he always holds an umbrella for others.

Messi grew up thin and short, and his neighbors and classmates didn't like to take him to play. He can only amuse himself by playing football every day. At the age of six, grandma tried her best to persuade the coach to send him to the football team for training.

Messi lived up to grandma's expectations and showed his talent on the court. However, the good times did not last long. When Macy/Kloc-0 was 0/0 years old, grandma died of illness. Later, Messi was diagnosed as dwarfism and his height would stop at 140cm.

Dwarf is not an incurable disease, but it costs $900 to inject growth hormone every month. After two years of persistence, Messi's father was unable to bear the high cost and turned to Messi's club for help.

However, after learning the news, the club made it clear that it was unwilling to pay for the medical expenses of a dwarf child with an uncertain future. Not only that, but even the Riverbed Club, which has always wanted to introduce Messi, turned around and ran away.

Fortunately, Spanish giants Barcelona handed out an olive branch and promised to bear all the treatment expenses of Messi. In return, Messi insisted that Barcelona never left until his old club suspected that he was old and took the initiative to kick him out.

China women's football player Zhang, whose height is 154cm, regards Messi as her idol. 20 16 almost ruined his sports career because of an ankle fracture. Messi, who is far away from the other side of the ocean, immediately sent her autographed jersey to cheer for her.

Qiongzhong County, Hainan, 20 13, is a national first-class poverty-stricken county. At that time, the sneakers of Qiongzhong women's football team were worn out and had to be mended. After Messi knew it, he called on his teammates to auction their jerseys, and all the money raised was donated to Qiongzhong Women's Football Team.

After that, China lived up to expectations and won the Gothic Cup in the Little World Cup.

In 2007, when Messi was in China, he sponsored Jinan fans who suffered from floods. In the same year, funded the education of disabled children and adolescents in western China; In 2008, Messi raised money for the snowstorm in southern China; 10 trip to China, Messi cares for the children affected by Yushu; ……

Messi never stopped supporting China football!

Why is Messi so popular in China? People admire him not only for his world-class skills, but also for his title of "plum ball king"!

Some people say that this World Cup is the twilight of the gods, Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, modric, Suarez ... and many famous players in world football will bid farewell to the World Cup, but their spirit will always affect future generations.

Why is football the most popular sport on the planet? There is not only blood and inspiration in football, but also inheritance and encouragement! Here, I want to end today's article by borrowing the conclusion of football poet He Wei on this World Cup final:

The splendid fireworks in Lourseyre Stadium are cheering for the Argentines! I also send my blessing and respect to all the people who participated in this World Cup! There is only one champion, but everyone has his own.
