What's it like to be one of the world's biggest soccer stars and doubted by many in your home country? That's the question Lionel Messi faces in The Last Cup. Not only is this year's World Cup his last chance to bring home the coveted trophy – it's his last chance for vindication. Hosted by Argentine journalist Jasmine Garsd, The Last Cup is much more than a sports story. It's a tale of immigration and race, of capitalism and class, of belonging and identity. A story for anyone who's ever felt like an outsider in their own home.]]> Copyright 2022 NPR - For Personal Use Only NPR Feed Publish Service v2.3.13 en-us NPR no podcasts@npr.org NPR serial https://media.npr.org/assets/img/2024/08/08/embedded---the-last-cup---tile---3000x3000_sq-aff8cbce40a76f7dd2367a60d5f92d28cf0adc0b.jpg?s=1400&c=66&f=jpg https://www.npr.org/podcasts/510367/the-last-cup Mon, 16 Mar 2026 16:07:33 +0000 Support NPR by enrolling in NPR+!
