The World Cup sleeps next to Messi in bed (photos)

Argentine legend Lionel Messi published pictures on his account on the social networking site "Instagram" and the World Cup next to him on the bed, as he never leaves her and sleeps next to him.

And Messi, 35, seemed to refuse to give up the trophy that he snatched for the first time in his career, after it eluded him over the past years.

Argentina had won the third title in its history by defeating France in the final of the World Cup in Qatar, via penalty kicks 4-2 (regular and extra time 3-3).
