00:01It's his first time at the White House.
00:04Argentinian star footballer Lionel Messi and his teammates from Inter Miami
00:08were received by U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday
00:11to celebrate their win of last year's Major League Soccer Cup.
00:16And, Leo, you came in and you won.
00:18And that's something very hard to do, very unusual.
00:22And, frankly, there's a lot more pressure put on you than anyone would know
00:25because, you know, you're sort of expected to win, but almost nobody wins.
00:29They come in. They're great. They're the best in the world.
00:31They get paid a fortune.
00:32You came in and you won with all that pressure.
00:34That's an amazing tribute. So, congratulations.
00:38Inter Miami was the first MLS team to be invited to the White House
00:42during Trump's two terms in office.
00:45Lionel Messi joined the team in 2023.
00:48The 38-year-old is expected to play for his country Argentina
00:52during the World Cup this summer.
