This week is all about soccer around the world. Many different countries are going to fight until the last minute to achieve glory. Famous players like Ronaldinho and Lionel Messi will demonstrate in the field their quality of game. Paraguay, leader of the World Cup Qualifiers will try to consolidate themselves as leaders by playing against Chile, leaded by Argentinian coach Marcelo Bielsa.

The 59th FIFA congress was held in the Bahamas to decide the main topics that include the desperate measures in leagues around the world. FIFA President Joseph Blatter is "absolutely happy to develop unity in the family", in which he wants all players to work as one. Many players around the world are brought from many different backgrounds, but I think that they have so much passion that they need to make it to the top. The FIFA Congress was successful in the Bahamas, they revealed the culture and living that they make it seem like one world can become one alliance in working together as a fair play world.

Lionel Messi has once again proved millions of people of why he should be the best soccer player in the world. His ability to run down through defenders and a threat to goalies around the world has made him one of the best players in our generation. Since 2005 he was considered to be a soccer prodigy and becoming the seed of Diego Armando Maradona, which is another iconic player from Argentina. Throughout the season, Lionel Messi has inherited the number 10 jersey in Barcelona FC. He scored 9 scores in the Champions including the one that sealed the victory 2-o over Manchester United on May 27th.

In my opinion, I think Lionel Messi has been one of the most humble Argentine players I have ever seen. As you know, he suffers from a growth hormone defficiency, and from that I think that he sees through that and makes it as a motivation spark that can make him move forward with strenght and courage. There are alot of reasons why he should be the best player in the world for this year because he has made an enormous amount of effort scoring 38 goals in a season. We see everyday of people struggling for everything that they can to move forward with their lives, but when you see Lionel Messi's life, you probably notice that impossible is nothing.
