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 .
Summary of the final 16:
🇨🇦 - not really tested so far
🇲🇦 - a seriously top well-rounded team
🇵🇾 - about to be fed to the wolves
🇫🇷 - powerhouses & clear favourites
🇧🇷 - saved by their elite attack
🇳🇴 - rusty rear, luxury front car meme
🇲🇽 - an unstoppable force at the Azteca
🏴 - looking shaky & need to improve
🇵🇹 - not convincing & lack chemistry
🇪🇸 - strongly growing into the tournament
🇺🇸 - cooking with Pochball
🇧🇪 - relying on an unfit Lukaku
🇦🇷 - fitness is a serious concern
🇪🇬 - luck is on their side
🇨🇭 - quietly impressive
🇨🇴 - the true dark horses
In their first-ever World Cup, Cape Verde played against:
Argentina (FIFA #1)
Spain (FIFA #2)
Uruguay (FIFA #16)
Saudi Arabia (FIFA #61)
They didn’t lose to any of them within 90 minutes. The smallest nation to ever make the World Cup knockouts. Thank you Cape Verde 🇨🇻
Argentina survive, but my goodness was that terrible. Almada can’t start again, Alvarez and Lautaro look HORRIBLE, not pretty.
Someone has to step up in the attacking third besides Messi. Alvarez and Di Maria were there in 22, someone has to do it.

I’ll say this loud and clear:
I love Scaloni, but he CANNOT keep side-casting Nico Paz, Valentin Barco and Giuliano Simeone.
Zero minutes for three of their most inform players in Europe this season. That is inexcusable.
¡¡¡LISANDRO MARTÍNEZ!!! ¡¡¡ARGENTINA RECUPERA LA VENTAJA!!!
La Albiceleste marca con un zurdazo en pelota parada y ya vencen 2-1 a Cabo Verde en tiempo extra.
¡¡¡CIERREN EL ESTADIO!!! ¡¡¡EL GOL DE LA COPA DEL MUNDO!!! ¡¡¡GOLAZO DE CABO VERDE!!!
Sidny Lopes Cabral saca un TREMENDO DISPARO y hace un GOLAZAZAZO sobre Argentina.
Páez verlo una y otra vez:
