“We all wanted to see Messi, and other players  and also Barcelona coach here. This is an award of FIFA. FIFA is the highest authority in football, so everyone should be here,”.

“Cristiano has learned the importance of this and I think Leo also needs to learn that he should be here. This must change. Real Madrid also have a game this week, but they are well in Zurich,” said the Brazilian.
