Je ne crois pas du tout que l'arbitrage explique ce scénario. Quand on mène 2-0 jusqu'à la 89e min, on n'a pas le droit de perdre 3-2. Froidement. #ARGEGY
🚨🗣️ Antoine Griezmann: “When I was a Barça player, the press used to write every day that Leo Messi was ‘unhappy with me.’ Messi used to tell me: ‘Antoine, don’t pay attention to it. That’s just the press.’
He answered them in every match. On the field he let me take some penalty kicks and celebrated my goals as if he had scored them himself.”
They’ll keep telling you both have 7 goals and that Mbappé is close to breaking Messi’s World Cup scoring records.
But they won’t tell you that:
- Messi is 39 years old and is still competing with a player who’s 27.
- Messi is playing alongside Lautaro and Nicolás González in attack, while Mbappé has Dembélé, Olise, Doué, and Barcola around him.
- Messi is expected to create, dictate the game, provide assists, and score, while Mbappé’s primary role is to finish the chances created by his teammates.
They also won’t tell you that all 7 of Messi’s goals have come from open play, without a single penalty, after years of claiming he relies on penalties.
And of course, they won’t talk about France’s path through the tournament. Instead, they’ll keep saying the draw was rigged in Argentina’s favor, even though Portugal themselves failed to beat Congo.
They’ll do anything to tarnish the reputation and legacy of the greatest player to ever touch a football.
🚨 Zlatan Ibrahimović slams conspiracy theories after Argentina's win
🗣️ "Every time Messi wins, the same people become detectives. They blame the referee, blame FIFA, blame VAR, blame everything except the football.
Then Ronaldo wins with a penalty and suddenly the referee is a genius, the rules are perfect, and justice has been served.
This World Cup has barely been about Ronaldo, yet some of his fans have made every single Argentina match their final. They cheer for every opponent Messi faces, then spend hours searching for conspiracies when he wins. That is not rivalry. That is obsession.
The most obsessed people in football today are not Messi fans. They are the ones who cannot go a single day without talking about Messi, even when their own idol is still in the tournament.
If your football opinion changes depending on whether Messi wins or loses, you are not watching football. You are watching one man.
Greatness does not need excuses. It speaks for itself."
He won the World Cup. They said he scored too many penalties. Now he has scored 7 goals without a single penalty . What I love about Messi is that he has a way of confusing idiots .
Lionel Messi doesn’t want to take the easy way out by scoring a penalty in this World Cup, this is his new challenge he set for himself, unbelievable mentality.
