Life isn’t fair. Some have money but not health. Love but not children. Degrees but no job. Jobs but no peace.
The mistake is thinking someone’s life is perfect because you only see the part they’re winning in.
Everyone’s fighting something you can’t see. Be grateful for yours.
Messi played against the Netherlands 🇳🇱, Croatia 🇭🇷, and France 🇫🇷 in 2022 and still won the World Cup. Now it’s Ronaldo’s turn to face them, and his fans are already crying. Keep crying your hearts out 😂😂.
- Draws are done LIVE,
- Format are PUBLISHED few months before World Cup,
- Teams get their SCHEDULE.
I know we want to banter but it's LAME if you continue to say FIFA Is setting up the World Cup for Messi.
Some officiating can favour them like a toe offside for Colombia game against Portugal & as you see, it can favour any team.
As you're setting your own records, he is breaking your own records, setting his own records, and breaking his own records.
I might not haved lived in the times of Shakespeare, Aurelius, Alexander the Great or Napoleon - but it has been the honor of my life to call you my GOAT.
Lionel Messi is the first player to score in SEVEN consecutive World Cup matches, a run that goes back to Argentina’s Round of 16 game against Australia in 2022.
Messi has scored 6 non penalty goals in the world cup.
Now that we’ve qualified to the KO stages, FIFA can start rolling out our usual penalties.
We’d get another 6 from penalties.
🚨🎙️🗣️| Leo Messi: “I'm no longer the same player I once was, I don't have the speed from 10 years ago anymore.
However, I've adjusted quickly to other styles in my game, like weaponizing the game in midfield.”
Firstly, Messi will be 43 in the next World Cup. Secondly, Messi will not force himself to play more games for Argentina once he can’t do it again.
One of the most intelligent things Messi has done as he aged is to ADAPT.
He has metamorphosed from explosive athleticism to elite intelligence. His positioning has now skyrocketed. For instance, look at where he received the pass from De Paul to score that first goal against Algeria, he picks spaces opponents don’t imagine he would.
The good part about Messi is that, in the glory days, he embraced playmaking, and now, that is paying off for him. He still drops those passes, crazy ones, those assists are still there.
The most important of them all is the energy conservation. Bro walks more than he runs, but hey, he’s Messi. Klopp was gave a speech to his players at Liverpool, he said “you cannot walk except you’re Messi”. Messi is allowed to do whatever off the ball, because when he’s on the ball, nobody else has his ability.
If you play against Messi, and you think he’s ineffective because he walks, the joke will be on you. Pep once said, while Messi walks, he is scanning everywhere. He knows where everyone is on the pitch, he’s reading the game to know where he can hurt you.
Those results you see on the ball, those spaces he picks up, yes, they’re offshoots of how he’s been reading the game while walking😅
Really good analysis from Henry. This is the Ronaldo issue right now.
He's playing as a 9, but he's never been a 9 and he's not acting as a 9. Not giving Portugal those traits and it hurt them today.
اللقطة دي وحدها تفسر ليه كل اللاعبين اللي لعبوا مع ليونيل ميسي بيحبوه بالشكل ده.
في آخر دقائق مباراة الأرجنتين، مكنش فيه أي مكان فاضي على دكة ال��دلاء، فبدأ الناس تدور على حل وتطلب من حد يقوم عشان يقعد ميسي بعد خروجه.
لكن ميسي رفض تمامًا.
قالهم: "محدش يقوم من مكانه." وبعدها قرر يتابع باقي المباراة وهو جالس على الأرض بجوار الدكة، بدون أي طلب لمعاملة خاصة أو امتيازات إضافية.
إحنا بنتكلم عن لاعب حقق كل شيء ممكن في كرة القدم، بطل عالم، صاحب أرقام تاريخية لا تُصدق، وأحد أعظم الرياضيين في تاريخ اللعبة، ومع ذلك لا يزال يتصرف بتواضع طفل عاشق لكرة القدم.
يمكن الناس تختلف على من هو الأعظم، لكن من الصعب جدًا ألا تحترم لاعبًا بحجم ليونيل ميسي عندما تكون هذه هي شخصيته بعد كل ما حققه.
