Then you make your way up to the top and it's great to see [[Leo] Messi](https://www.espn.com.au/soccer/player/_/id/45843/lionel-messi) playing at Plough Lane." "I am truly fortunate, and deeply grateful, to have had many special moments in my career thus far, and I consider this experience among the best of them," Sudeikis said in a statement.
