I stormed on this article on Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi
I want you to read it, it's another angle entirely
I picked this part from it
"When Messi lost finals, and he lost several, badly, in ways that seemed to break him, he didn’t disappear quietly. He threw tantrums. He cried in front of the cameras.
"He threatened to quit. And the people around him came to him every time. What do you need? Come back. We’re still here
"That’s a man who grew up knowing that love doesn’t leave when you fail. He could fall apart because he had always been caught."
"Ronaldo, when he loses, goes inward. He blames himself when it goes wrong. He credits himself when it goes right.
"He expects everyone else to run the same internal economy.
And that expectation, formed in a household where a child had to be the engine of his own family’s survival, is both the source of everything he achieved and the wall he keeps running into"
People beat their chests crying, howling like ghouls against Arsenal when they won the PL. Why? Because their fans are intolerable braggarts. Argentina's fans and players can be 10x worse than any Arsenal fan can be. Morally bankrupt. There's a reason LATAM hates them
Will not let my past adulation of Messi cloud my better judgment. His talent and ability DO NOT mean he deserves to profit off ridiculous calls and contentious refereeing. FIFA is not beyond sway and corruption - Trump proved it a week ago. Argentina needs looking into
When you watch football, you watch it because you hope fairness prevails. You watch it for the beauty of the game - no other game comes close. But when the integrity of the game is compromised, the taste is bitter. And the character of their fans and players? Disgraceful
I feel badly for Tuchel. Nobody will appreciate the balls it took to leave so many people at home. Actually made the semis but badly managed game is costing him his reputation. But this man's a CL winner, proven pedigree. He'll sort England out
Argentina goal scorer Enzo Fernandez, on the French national team (translated):
"They play in France but they are from Angola. They are going to run well, they sleep with trans people. Mum is Nigerian, dad is Cameroonian, but the passport says French”
¿De verdad les tengo que explicar por qué rezo con todo mi corazón para que la Selección de Argentina gane esta noche y se meta en la final? 🇦🇷♥️

@sanderlamenand I feel like while Spain is definitely class, and they work as a collective - Argentina work as very good disruptors, especially with their violent, brutish style of play. Much like Spain was built to take France out, I fear Argentina is their perfect counter
If he can lap up Trump's bs in the open, imagine what he does behind the scenes. Corrupt man. Corrupt organisation. Don't dare tell me this tournament isn't favoring one team heavily
I don't even see what Bruno could've done? Is it his fault that Vintinha and JN suddenly have forgotten how to pass forward?? Ronaldo had absolutely no service but I dont think Bruno had much of the ball either. Most of the blame goes to the manager...then that midfield duo
In all of this Portugal disappointing performance at the World Cup
— PSG fans didn’t attack Joao Neves, Nuno Mendes and Vitinha or ask that they are sold by their club
— Chelsea fans slightly criticized Pedro Neto
— No words for Bernardo Silva, Joao Felix and Ruben Dias
— Them BOOM! You have Man United fans, attacking Bruno Fernandes with all they’ve got. He has been called all sorts of names. Disrespecting your best player and club captain
