Lionel Messi will definitely win the World Cup, according to soccer legend Zlatan Ibrahimovic. On Tuesday, Argentina will play Croatia in quarterfinals, and Messi will attempt to advance to his second career competition final. At the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, when Argentina was defeated 1-0 by Germany, he came the closest to winning the elusive trophy.

Ibrahimovic praised the other three semi-finalists in Doha but insisted that he only sees one team winning the championship: “I think it’s already written who will win, and you know who I mean. I think Messi will lift the trophy, it’s already written,” said Ibrahimovic.
