FootballRonaldinho tells Messi: “You are the greatest”
As Messi bid farewell to Argentina’s national team, Ronaldinho sent him an emotional message recalling their shared history.

The scoring chart for Arab Gulf Cup 27, held in Saudi Arabia, puts Firas Al-Buraikan first with three goals. Abdullah Al-Hamdan and Hassan Kadesh also feature in the table, level in eighth place with one goal each. The figures offer an early snapshot of the tournament’s attacking race, though they do not by themselves capture the competition’s wider stakes.
Hosted by the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, this edition is expected to produce a lively contest in front of goal. Major scorers are anticipated, and each team is described as arriving with significant attacking options. The individual pursuit is therefore part of a team competition that grows more intense as the tournament progresses.
The Arab Gulf Cup also holds a distinctive place in the region. It brings the peoples of the Gulf together through football, with sporting rivalry alongside fraternity and fair play. In that setting, the top-scorer title means more than a place in a table: its winner can write his name into the competition’s history after competing against teams with a strong competitive spirit.
For now, the chart separates Firas Al-Buraikan’s three goals from the single goal scored by each of the two Saudi players tied for eighth. Their positions and totals provide a concrete marker for following the attacking story of a Gulf Cup in which forwards are particularly anticipated.
