June is just around the corner. 2026 World Cup soccer ⚽ These cards are in my vault.

Pele / Messi / Yamal (9/20) 9.5

This card commemorates Messi’s goal in the 2009 Champions League Final — Barcelona’s second against Manchester United, sealing a 2-0 victory and his first Champions League title as an active finalist. One of the defining moments of the greatest career in football history, captured in one of his earliest certified autograph releases.

Autographs were case hits in this product — one per every 20-box case. Only three PSA 10 copies exist across the entire population.

Icons has maintained an exclusive autograph deal with Messi for over a decade, making this one of the most legitimate and significant Messi autos in the hobby.
