Hacemos fiesta si les ganamos.

Y como somos mejores además les vamos a ganar.

🏅 vs England (SF)

Argentina will play in three World Cup finals in the Messi era.

And he led them as their captain, their top scorer, and their best player to all three finals.

Only 6 players in all of history can boast of playing in 3 FIFA WC final matches; none can boast of being their team’s best player in all three.

Do you know the crazier bit? Messi has won two FIFA World Cup player of tournament awards and he will certainly win a third regardless of what happens in the final.

He is above and beyond all. Past, Present and foreseeable future.

Hacía muchos años que no veía a un entrenador infravalorar a Leo Messi como lo ha hecho Thomas Tuchel. Tremendo.

[LACOBRAAA @lautarodeIcampo]

Acá se ve la realidad de Francia, un equipo mega dependiente de Mbappé, pero ojito que en esta red social querian darle el Balón de Oro a Dembelé por hacerle goles a Noruega con suplentes. Tarde o temprano todo en su lugar. Gracias fútbol.

LIONEL MESSI GOAL AND ASSIST.

WHEN ARGENTINA NEEDS HIM.

OF COURSE 🐐

[Miguel Quintana @migquintana]

La asistencia y el gol que se acaba de sacar Leo Messi tras los 80' tan pobres que estaban haciendo tanto él como Argentina en general. Simplemente histórico. Otro partido memorable de este Mundial.

[DAZN España @DAZN_ES]

VA A TENER 280 AÑOS Y ESTE TÍO VA A SEGUIR SIENDO UN EXTRATERRESTRE
EL ORGULLO DE ARGENTINA
EL ORGULLO DE LEO
EL ORGULLO DE MESSI 🇦🇷

Argentina estaba sin ideas. Argentina estaba sin energía. Argentina estaba eliminada.

Pero Messi decidió echarse a la espalda a la campeona del mundo para inventarse una asistencia y un gol contra Egipto.

Y a este jugador le llamaban "pecho frío" antes de 2022.

[🐐🇦🇷 @Bayio_nel]

Friendly reminder that if World Cup format was still 16-24 teams like pre-1990 then Portugal wouldn't have qualified to any of the 2010, 2014, or 2022 World Cups.

Do not fall for the bullshit propaganda of "they only qualified to 3 World Cups before him".

[Inter Miami News Hub @Intermiamicfhub]

Cristiano Ronaldo has played in 6 World Cups, 6 Euros, 4 Nations League, 1 Olympics, 1 Confederations Cup and has never won the MVP award in any of them.

Another Record for him.

[Teledeporte @teledeporte]

El entrenador español del PSG ha vivido un emotivo momento en la ‘playa de El Rinconín’ de Gijón, que llevará su nombre.

En el discurso de agradecimiento, Luis Enrique se ha echado a llorar hablando sobre sus padres, su mujer y sus hijos.

[PIEZAS @Piezas750]

El Cannobio ese tendría que estar en la calle hace ya media hora, jodido puerco.

[MisterChip (Alexis) @2010MisterChip]

Argentina puede ser aún 1ª, 2ª o 3ª de grupo, pero ya está matemáticamente clasificada.

Leo Messi en fases de grupos...

Champions League: 19 de 19 superadas
Mundial de Clubes: 1 de 1 superadas
Leagues Cup: 2 de 2 superadas
Copa del Mundo: 6 de 6 superadas
Copa América: 7 de 7 superadas

35 de 35 superadas. Si conoces a alguien con un pleno igual o superior, puedes mencionarle.

SPOLIER: no vas a encontrar a nadie.

[Albert Ortega @AlbertOrtegaES1]

Es el mejor de la historia. Es que no hay más. Qué hace presionando, marcando y sentenciando un partido de la fase de grupos de un Mundial de esta manera.

Que cumple 39 años en dos días. Messi está loco.

[Rich @RichFooty]

I've watched almost every ball that Messi has kicked in the MLS and he's still World Class specifically WITH the ball.

No attacking player has ever been this good at his age.

[Manu_fut @Manu_fut85]

Solo hay dos tipos de personas que creen que Messi no es el mejor de la historia, los portugueses y los hinchas del Real Madrid 🤷🏻‍♂️

I want to say something about Kiin, because I want to be direct with our fanbase about how I feel.

They published the selection criteria. Read them for yourself, because they matter.

After the achievement-based shortlist, the final roster came down to what they themselves called "detailed individual metrics." If you understand the game, look at that list and ask one question: what does a top laner do to make most of those numbers go up? He gets the favorable matchup. He gets the comfort pick. He gets resources funneled into his lane. Solo kills, DPM, DPG, gold diff at 14, CS diff at 14, every one of those climbs when the draft is built around you, and sinks when you give the lane up so a teammate can have theirs.

Now ask what Kiin does. Kiin is the top laner who says "draft around everyone else and give me the leftover pick, I'll make it work." He takes the counterpick so a teammate gets comfort. He eats the hard matchup so the map opens elsewhere. Every one of those choices is a teammate's DPM going up instead of his. He trades his stat line for his team's win condition, every single game.

There's no column on that list for that. The closest it comes to team value, gold share, damage share, still rewards the player who gets the resources, not the one who gives them up. And champion pool size is right there on the list: a metric that should favor exactly the kind of flexible player Kiin is. He plays one of the widest, most selfless pools in the role and still didn't make it.

And before anyone runs with this: this is not about Zeus. Zeus is world-class and earned his spot. The players aren't the problem. The measuring stick is. We need to more rigorously test the statistics we cite, especially when it becomes a measuring stick that can impact decisions like these.

If your criteria are built mostly from individual mechanical stats without proper statistical context, you haven't found the best players, you've found the players whose teams were built to make them look best. Kiin plays the game the right way. If these metrics say otherwise, the metrics are the problem, not Kiin, and not the players who were picked.

To Kiin's fans: you already know this. You watched him do it. Please show him more support than ever.

@tryhardnyx El cono lo ves como una mejora notable o puede ser mejor ahorrar un poco e ir E2?
