Lionel Andres Messi was born on June 24, 1987 in the city of Rosario, Argentina. Everyone knows him now as the best football player in the world. In fact, a lot of people say he might become the greatest player ever. We’ll see about that at the World Cup. Messi is FIFA World Player of the Year. He also helped his club team Barcelona win the European Champions League and the World Club Championship.
1987年6月24日，里奧內爾·安德雷斯·梅西出生在阿根廷羅薩里奧市。眾所周知，他是世界上最佳足球運動員。有人認為他是史上最偉大的球員。世界杯將一見分曉。梅西是世界足球先生。還曾幫助巴塞羅那俱樂部贏得歐冠和世俱杯冠軍。
Messi grew up playing football. He joined his first club when he was five. At the age of eight, he signed up for the famous Newell's Old Boys' youth team. His career nearly ended when doctors found out he suffered from a growth hormone deficiency. Luckily, agents from Barcelona saw his talent and in 2000, he moved to Spain. The Catalan club paid for his medical treatment and coached him until he made his Barcelona debut.
梅西從小開始踢球。5歲入選俱樂部。8歲入選紐維爾斯老男孩青年隊。當時醫生發現他患有荷爾蒙缺乏癥，足球生涯幾近夭折。幸運的是，巴塞羅那球探發現梅西，2000年，梅西前往西拔牙。俱樂部為他支付醫藥費，在為巴塞羅那首秀之前，還一直為他聘請教練。
Lionel started breaking records as soon as he played his first game for Barcelona in the 2004-05 season. He became the youngest footballer ever to play a La Liga game and the youngest to score a goal. He helped his team win the league in his first season, and the league and Champions League double in the following season. In the 2008-09 season he scored an impressive 38 goals as Barcelona won the treble.
2004-2005賽季，梅西首次身披巴塞羅那球衣，并不斷打破記錄。他是西甲史上最年輕運動員，同時也是最年輕的進球球員。第一賽季就為球隊贏得西甲冠軍，第二賽季又贏得西甲和歐洲冠軍聯賽冠軍。2008-2009賽季，他代表巴塞羅那攻入驚人的38粒進球，并贏得西甲冠軍，超級杯冠軍以及歐冠冠軍。
Messi has an amazing career ahead of him. He is set to shine in South Africa. Many football experts compare him to the legendary Pele and Maradona. This World Cup could be the stage for him to show people he really is the best. His skills on the ball, ability to get past defenders and his goal-scoring are breathtaking. Top soccer coach Arsene Wenger said Messi is “like a PlayStation. He takes advantage of every mistake teams make”.
梅西足球生涯一片光明。他定將在南非世界杯一展雄風。許多業內人士將他與傳奇球星馬拉多納和貝利相提并論。本屆世界杯是向世人證明自己的絕佳舞臺。他帶救過人技術驚人，而他的進球技術更是瞠目結舌。頂級足球教練阿爾塞納·溫格認為，梅西就像視頻游戲。他能夠利用對方犯下的任何一個錯誤。”
