Lionel Messi has fired back at Kylian Mbappe's claim that the Euros are a harder competition than the World Cup, with the Argentina star pointing out that the former tournament is missing several world champions. 'Well, everybody prioritizes their tournament,' Messi began to ESPN Argentina, ahead of his country's participation in this summer's Copa America.
