The National Football Team in Argentina took the World Cup on Dec. 18, 2022, marking a major milestone for fans in the South American country. With Lionel Messi often credited for his uniting effect on the team, to celebrate the win is to celebrate his contributions.

Coming up on the first anniversary of this historic win, oil company YPF has teamed with Isla Buenos Aires to commemorate Messi’s achievements both on and off the field. Taking the form of a 90-second short film titled “Linea de cal,” the spot highlights Messi’s ability to win the hearts of soccer devotees across Argentina.
