Lionel Messi's hat-trick gave those lucky enough to witness it in Kansas City in the United States a night they will never forget as he kick-started Argentina's World Cup defence in style on June 16.

The 38-year-old became the joint leading scorer in the tournament's history on 16 goals alongside Miroslav Klose and ensured the sales of a few more Messi 10 shirts to his adoring countrymen and new fans in north America.

00:51Somebody asked me how was my experience.
00:53Messi is the experience.
00:54Hat-trick, World Cup, first time ever.
00:57Got to bring my little girl here.
00:58Unbelievable.
00:59We cried.
01:00We cried.
01:01Messi is the best of all.

01:23But since it's coming from a diva like him,
01:28I accepted with big heart.
01:30At the end is Messi at his last career.
01:34And I think congratulations for Messi and Argentina.
01:38A little bit, yeah.
01:39I mean, he's a generational player, right?
01:41So Messi, you know, I grew up in the Maradona era, liked Argentina for a while,
01:46and Messi is a generational player.
01:48So watching him, it's bittersweet, like, do what he did against my home team, Algeria.
01:53But what I'm going to say is, you know, next week in Jordan, I'm going to say one, two, three,
01:57viva l'Algerie.
01:58And we're going to beat Jordan and come back in this thing.
02:01I love his determination, the fact that this is his sixth World Cup at, like, what, 39 years old?
02:08He's still playing World Cup football at a world class level.
02:12Three goals.
02:12El rey es el rey.
02:14Messi ya llegó al Mundial con tres.
