Six of the jerseys Lionel Messi wore during his World Cup run last year were auctioned off at a jaw-dropping price on Thursday. The shirts Messi wore throughout the run, including the one he donned when Argentina won the final, sold for $7.8 million at Sotheby's. Messi was awarded the Golden Ball for being the most outstanding player of the World Cup. Messi, 36, said the 2022 World Cup was his last, but he did play in a recent 2026 World Cup qualifier. It was Argentina's third-ever World Cup title.
