I've never seen a player that played with or against Messi and don't respect him and hold him in high regards even Zlatan himself still acknowledges him.
Incase you are wondering why Zlatan Ibrahimovic loves Leo Messi that much just watch this video and see for yourself
Tell me why breaze is blowing and it just pushed me a step side ways😫.
Nahhhh, I'm not doing this gym and diet stuff with you guys no more, nowayy
Make i first go load six wraps of fufu😌
@CandleyV I'll say Die na, and tell you all the things you'll mix out on and add more reasons to be alive, nobody go tell you make you change your view asap😏
Before this World Cup, I had actually stopped watching Messi regularly. So I came into the tournament with the feeling that, at this stage of his career, his goalscoring had probably declined.
I still believed he was one of, if not the best, playmakers in the world, but I thought he had naturally lost some of the things that made him unstoppable in his prime.
Then this World Cup started, and he was scoring in every game, competing with prime Mbappé and Haaland for the Golden Boot, like it was nothing.
At that point, I thought: okay, maybe the goals and playmaking are still there, but the dribbling is the one thing that has declined.
Then tonight he reminded everyone that he is still Messi. The way he was carrying the ball, escaping defenders, and beating players in tight spaces was a reminder that he is still among the best dribblers in the world.
Maybe some parts of his game have changed compared to his peak, but the crazy thing is that almost none of his qualities have dropped below an elite level.
The longevity this man has shown is something I have never seen in my life.
Most of the penaldo's fans don't really like him, they are just cheering for him out of spite for what Messi did to them in previous champions league games/Finals
That's why they go all & about cheering for everything he does just to spite Messi fans😂
Messi just keeps debunking every agenda that has been brought up against him
Imagine giving a pin point pass with his weak foot from the bottom of the column from below directly to the second person at the top of the column all with his weak foot
C'mon he's simply the BEST
One thing England forgot was to never ever trash talk Messi before a game it almost never ever ends well ask Ronaldo when Messi's Barca thrashed them 5-0 in the El-classico after he said they can't do such against Madrid cause Barca won their previous match by 5-8 goals
🩵🤍 Leo Messi: “I have been preparing for this World Cup for almost a year”.
“I spent December in Argentina, training morning and afternoon, because I knew I was going to give everything to arrive in the best possible shape”.
🚨🔥 Leo Messi: “They can say whatever they want. We compete, we fight, we also play well, look how we played today dominating England while we were losing…”.
“I am proud, and happy to make all argentinians happy”.
Humility from Messi at its peak.
Even at that his teammates even decided to chant his name, praising him.
They really do Adore him like a god there
#Messi#SelecciónArgentina#EngArg
🚨 | The fans were chanting Messi's name, but he pointed to the group, asking the fans cheer for them instead.
Humility in its purest form 🐐 https://t.co/kWmonIHd3h
Oyiga, you can't try to soften us after all the years of banters from left, right, corner and every other nook & crannies from you ogunmepon fans before
Now we've proven you'll wrong many times and will rub it on your faces😂
Messi is the Undisputed GOAT
THE GREATEST ALIVE 🐐
Messi’s longevity this World Cup tournament is incredible, but it’s the exact same blueprint Ronaldo laid down for longevity years ago.
Messi and Ronaldo are the undisputed twin GOATs of football
To say one is better than the other at this stage is just disrespecting the sport
What happened today in the Argentina vs. England game was absolute madness.
Imagine a game full of fouls, with barely any football being played and almost no real chances. Then, out of nowhere, England scored a scrappy goal and completely shut the game down. Thomas Tuchel even brought on three defenders—Dan Burn, Chris Rigg O’Riley, and Ezri Konsa—to protect the lead.
But Tuchel clearly didn’t learn from the Egypt vs. Argentina game. He forgot he was facing Lionel Messi, the greatest player in football history.
As always, Scaloni made the decisive adjustment. He moved Messi out wide and introduced Lautaro Martínez and Nicolás González alongside Julián Álvarez in the box, with Alexis Mac Allister arriving from midfield. Messi simply started delivering cross after cross.
The result? Enzo Fernández scored a stunning equalizer in the 86th minute, and Lautaro Martínez completed the comeback in the 92nd—both goals assisted by Messi.
A truly historic comeback.
A fully deserved place in the World Cup final for Argentina, who will now play in back-to-back World Cup finals for the first time in their history.
And above all, it’s another deserved moment for the greatest player in football history, Lionel Messi. 💙
So far in Argentina's games i have seen Mac Allister go for crazy headers and he's not even the tallest in the team same as lautaro.
Man ia giving his all for the Jersey, what a menance
Messi completed nine dribbles vs. England, the most any player has completed in a single match this World Cup.
It's also tied for the most he's EVER completed in a World Cup match.
39 years old 😨
