Esto decía Javier Hernández Bonnet hace un año.
Eso influyó en la Copa América... Habrá sido factor en este mundial? No se.
En estos eventos debe haber un blindaje especial que garantice compromiso y concentración... No se realmente si eso existe.
Cómo olvidar cuando Budweiser le mandó una botellita a cada arquero al que Messi le hizo un gol y a este manco le tuvo que mandar un camión más o menos jajajsjjsj
Toni Kroos on the claims that Argentina robbed Egypt at the World Cup:
🗣️ "I don't understand why people always look for excuses after a result like this. Football is decided over 90 minutes, not by one moment. Egypt played an excellent first half, but after going 2–0 up they lost control of the game, and Argentina took advantage. That's what top teams do.
"People keep talking about the referee and VAR, but if you watch the match objectively, Argentina's comeback was built on their intensity, quality, and mentality. They believed until the final whistle, while Egypt couldn't maintain the same level they showed early on.
"You can't throw away a two-goal lead against one of the best teams in the world and then reduce everything to one decision. Football is much more complex than that.
"There will always be debates about refereeing, and that's normal. But saying the match was 'stolen' or that the tournament is being handed to Argentina is unfair to every player on the pitch. The players decide games with their performances, not conspiracy theories.
"The difficult thing after defeat is accepting that the opponent was better in the decisive moments. Argentina deserved credit for the way they responded under pressure, and Egypt should be proud of their performance while also learning from the mistakes that cost them. That's football."
Colombia debió ganarlo en los 90 minutos, todos sabíamos que en lo penales iba a ser muy difícil por la falta de jerarquía que tiene el equipo en esa instancia.
Thierry Henry on Lionel Messi in tears after Argentina’s incredible comeback to beat Egypt 3-2 at the World Cup:
🗣️ “Seeing Lionel Messi in tears after that final whistle tells you everything. People see the trophies, the records, the goals, but they don’t always see the weight he carries on his shoulders. He carries the dreams of an entire nation every single time he steps onto that pitch.”
“This was not just a comeback victory it was a battle of heart, belief, and character. Argentina were 2-0 down, their World Cup dream was slipping away, but Messi refused to let his team give up. He kept fighting, kept leading, and showed why he is one of the greatest competitors football has ever seen.”
“The emotion we saw from Messi was the emotion of a player who understands what it means to represent millions of people. He doesn’t play only for himself; he plays for Argentina, for his teammates, and for every fan who believes in him. Tonight, he showed the human side behind the legend.”
“Great players create moments, but true legends create memories that last forever. Coming back from 0-2 to win 3-2 in a World Cup knockout match is the kind of night that will be remembered for generations. Messi didn’t just lead Argentina to victory he gave them a moment they will never forget.”
Muchas mentes pequeñas, rencorosas y resentidas siguen criticando a Messi. Yo estoy más que feliz de llevar 20 años disfrutando de su magia. Gracias Capitán 🐐
