Before the final and during halftime, Messi and Martin gave each other a pep talk, encouraging the team to show their fighting spirit.

Messi's words to his teammates before and during the match between Argentina and Spain were recorded.

Before the match, Messi said, "Come on, lads, calm down, everyone calm down. The most important thing is that we calm down. We only think about playing football, calm down, forget everything, forget everything. We just play football, everyone just think about playing football, come on."

At halftime, Martin and Messi rallied the team. Messi said, "Come on, guys! Show some spirit, everyone show some spirit... We've always had it. Have we lost it now? Play with spirit, we have the ability!"

Martin added: "Give it your all, guys! Give it your all, play our football. Forward, don't back down... Forward, forward, forward! Only cowards back down."
