In the long conversation between generations of Argentine greatness, Lionel Messi stepped closer to Diego Maradona on Saturday — not merely in numbers, but in meaning. His eighth World Cup goal, a composed strike from distance when Argentina most needed steadying, tied Maradona's tally and his 21 appearances for the national side in a 2-0 victory over Mexico. The record matters less than what it represents: a living player still reaching toward a legacy that his country has always measured against a ghost.
