Regulars on Flickr will know that my sporting interests lay with the oval ball and Rugby League rather than the world game, Football. The Argentinians do have a quality Rugby Union team and we did pass a few rugby pitches on our travels but there is no doubt Football or Soccer (if you are American) really is their national sport.
With the Euros football tournament now underway I guess such football interest will build here in the UK but whether we will ever see a mural of this size adorning a city central building I doubt. The figure seen here is Lionel Messi who is probably the world's greatest ever footballer. He has made over 700 appearances to date for top flight sporting teams plus another 182 for the national team of Argentina. Add to that over 650 goals and I am sure those stats say it all.

My son Leonardo is a soccer guy. Wants to play with me every day, when i come home from work.
And, as you can see, he is a great fan of Lionel Messi and the FC Barcelona (but also Bayern Muenchen, of course - we're living close to Munich).

Camp Nou (Catalan pronunciation: [kamˈnɔw], New Field, often referred to in English as The Nou Camp is a football stadium in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, which has been the home of Futbol Club Barcelona since 1957.
The Camp Nou seats 99,786, reduced to 96,336 in matches organized by UEFA, making it the largest stadium in Europe and the 11th largest in the world in terms of capacity. It has hosted numerous international matches at a senior level, including two UEFA Champions League finals and the football competition at the 1992 Summer Olympics.
Spanish
El Camp Nou (en castellano, Campo Nuevo) pronunciado [kam ˈnɔw], a menudo también citado erróneamente como Nou Camp, es un recinto deportivo propiedad del Fútbol Club Barcelona, inaugurado el 24 de septiembre de 1957 y ubicado en el distrito de Les Corts de Barcelona, España.
Es el estadio con más capacidad de Europa y el sexto del mundo, con un aforo actual de 99.354 espectadores. La capacidad del estadio, ha variado debido a las diferentes ampliaciones y remodelaciones que se han hecho. Inicialmente, en 1957 su aforo era de 93.053 espectadores, cifra que llegó hasta los 120.000 espectadores en 1982, con la ampliación y construcción de la tercera gradería, con motivo del Mundial '82 celebrado en España. Posteriormente, en aplicación de la normativa que obligaba a eliminar las localidades sin asiento de 1998, el aforo se situó por debajo de los 100.000 espectadores.
El 12 de enero de 1998 fue catalogado como estadio categoría elite por la UEFA, siendo el segundo de España en conseguir dicha categoría.

El Camp Nou és l'estadi on juga el FC Barcelona, en el barri barceloní de les Corts. Té la màxima qualificació (5 estrelles) que la FIFA pot atorgar a un estadi per acollir partits de futbol. El Camp Nou és l'estadi amb més capacitat d'Europa, amb 99.354 espectadors.
Fou inaugurat el 24 de setembre del 1957 amb el nom oficial d'Estadi del FC Barcelona, però popularment va adoptar el nom de Camp Nou pel fet de substituir l'antic Camp de les Corts. En la temporada 2000-2001 es va oficialitzar el nom després d'una consulta popular per correu. Dels 29.102 socis que hi van participar, 19.861 (68.25%) van votar a favor del canvi.
L'alçada de l'estadi és de quaranta-vuit metres i ocupa una superfície total de cinquanta-cinc mil metres quadrats.

Lionel Andrés "Leo" Messi Cuccittini; born 24 June 1987) is an Argentine professional footballer who plays as a forward for Spanish club FC Barcelona and the Argentina national team. Often considered the best player in the world and regarded by many as the greatest of all time, Messi has a record-tying five Ballon d'Or awards, four of which he won consecutively, and a record-tying four European Golden Shoes. He has spent his entire professional career with Barcelona, where he has won 29 trophies, including eight La Liga titles, four UEFA Champions League titles, and five Copas del Rey. Both a prolific goalscorer and a creative playmaker, Messi holds the records for most official goals scored in La Liga (368), a La Liga season (50), a club football season in Europe (73), a calendar year (91), El Clásico (26), as well as those for most assists made in La Liga (146) and the Copa América (11). He has scored over 600 senior career goals for club and country.
Born and raised in central Argentina, Messi was diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency as a child. At age 13, he relocated to Spain to join Barcelona, who agreed to pay for his medical treatment. After a fast progression through Barcelona's youth academy, Messi made his competitive debut aged 17 in October 2004. Despite being injury-prone during his early career, he established himself as an integral player for the club within the next three years, finishing 2007 as a finalist for both the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year award, a feat he repeated the following year. His first uninterrupted campaign came in the 2008–09 season, during which he helped Barcelona achieve the first treble in Spanish football. At 22 years old, Messi won the Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year award by record voting margins.
Three successful seasons followed, with Messi winning three consecutive FIFA Ballon d'Ors, including an unprecedented fourth. His personal best campaign statistically to date was the 2011–12 season, in which he set the La Liga and European records for most goals scored in a single season, while establishing himself as Barcelona's all-time top scorer in official competitions in March 2012. The following two seasons, Messi finished twice second for the Ballon d'Or behind Cristiano Ronaldo, his perceived career rival. Messi regained his best form during the 2014–15 campaign, breaking the all-time goalscoring records in both La Liga and the Champions League in November 2014, and led Barcelona to a historic second treble.
An Argentine international, Messi is his country's all-time leading goalscorer. At youth level, he won the 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, finishing the tournament with both the Golden Ball and Golden Shoe, and an Olympic gold medal at the 2008 Summer Olympics. His style of play as a diminutive, left-footed dribbler drew comparisons with compatriot Diego Maradona, who declared the teenager his successor. After making his senior debut in August 2005, Messi became the youngest Argentine to play and score in a FIFA World Cup during the 2006 edition, and reached the final of the 2007 Copa América, where he was named young player of the tournament. As the squad's captain from August 2011, he led Argentina to three consecutive finals: the 2014 World Cup, for which he won the Golden Ball, and the 2015 and 2016 Copas América. After announcing his international retirement in 2016, he reversed his decision and led his country to qualification for the 2018 World Cup.
