🩵🤍 Can we show some love to Thiago Almada?
🇦🇷 For Argentina’s first goal, his subtle step-over was the key moment. It allowed Lionel Messi to run onto the ball and finish brilliantly, setting the new all-time World Cup scoring record.
Almada won’t get the official assist because he never touched the ball, but that clever dummy created the opportunity. Without it, Messi doesn’t get the chance to run onto the cut back so perfectly.
Sometimes the most important contribution is the one that never shows up on the scoresheet.
All the records broken by Lionel Messi today:
Most FIFA World Cup finals goals by a football (soccer) player - 18
