In a glittering and superlative career to date, there are few personal accolades and records that Lionel Messi has not won. One that had eluded him was the title of The Best FIFA Men’s Player – until this year. After a magnificent domestic campaign which saw the evergreen Argentinean once more helped his side to the Spanish La Liga title, the tenth of his career, he also claimed the European Golden Shoe for the sixth time after netting 36 league goals in 2018/19. His remarkable goalscoring record did not hinder his ability to help his team-mates, with La Pulga registering the most La Liga assists (13) throughout the campaign.
His brilliance also helped the Blaugrana to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals and the Copa Del Rey final while he played his part in Argentina’s third-place finish at the Copa America. It may have taken four attempts, but Messi is now The Best.
迄今为止，在辉煌的职业生涯中，几乎没有个人头衔和记录是莱昂内尔·梅西尚未得到的。其中之一，是FIFA最佳球员——直到他今年被授予这一称号。 在一个伟大的赛季之后，常青藤般的阿根廷人再次帮助巴塞罗那赢得了西甲联赛，这已是他职业生涯的第十个联赛冠军。在2018/19赛季打入36个联赛进球之后，他还第六次获得欧洲金靴奖。他出色的进球记录并没有妨碍他为支援队友的能力，他在赛季中贡献了最多的助攻（13个）。
他的出色表现也帮助巴塞罗那闯入了欧洲冠军联赛（UEFA）冠军杯半决赛，并帮助阿根廷获得了美洲杯（Copa America）的季军，或许尝试了数次，但梅西现在正是最佳。
