Lionel Messi has sent a message to Barcelona as the Inter Miami forward celebrates an 'amazing' anniversary. It was on this day in 2004 that Messi made his La Liga debut as he was introduced late on in their 1-0 win at Espanyol. As the Blaugrana sought to see a narrow victory over their rivals, then boss Frank Rijkaard had no qualms about bringing the Argentine on for Deco late on.
