🚨🎙️ How are you, Scaloni?

🗣️ Scaloni: "I can't look at you, I'm sorry, I'm too emotional, what a group of players, my brother, that's all... I have to go, I can't."

[The New York Times @nytimes]

From @TheAthleticFC: The outpouring of emotion in his goal celebration and his tears at full time show just how much this all still means for Lionel Messi. He scored his eighth goal of this World Cup to move him clear in the Golden Boot standings. https://t.co/QrL2rOBRUC

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

For the second time in the last four days, Argentina’s hopes to repeat as World Cup champions were hanging by a thread.

And for the second time in four days, they were rescued by the greatest player in the history of the game. ⚽️ https://t.co/L4J6JOSbXs

It’s rare to see Lionel Scaloni celebrate with such emotion. His reaction wasn’t just about the goal. It was the release of tension, a sigh of relief, and a powerful expression of belief that victory was finally within their grasp.

He needs to fix things.

Watch this clip showing the controversial incident between Salah & Alvarez.

You’d notice that (a) Salah was dispossessed without foul play (b) Alvarez’s leg was first planted to the ground without motion before Salah’s foot hit Alvarez’s in motion.

Lionel Andrés Messi Cuccittini
First of his kind
One in a lifetime

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

I really don’t get how you guys arrive at this conclusion. When Croatia’s goal was canceled, where was this energy? Why didn’t y’all say FIFA was supporting Cristiano Ronaldo?

Meanwhile, the ref was fair

Emotions mask objectivity most time but enjoy the game with all its flaws.

[Aji Bussu Onye Mpiawa azụ 🇨🇮 @AfamDeluxo]

Everyone is finally seeing just how deeply corrupt FIFA is and how consistently it bends over backwards to favor Messi and Argentina.

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

@Elkrosmediahub Just enjoy the football; there’s zero need to spike your cortisol levels.

Even if/when Argentina gets knocked out, it’s on record that Messi has a World Cup trophy and got knocked out only after Cristiano’s team crashed out.

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

@winexviv Congratulations to the kids. Well done, Alex 👏🏽

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

🤣 hate watching Messi is a extreme choice

[Cross˚ @Elkrosmediahub]

Fuck!

What sort of faux dopamine did Egypt dish us?

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

@uchekene_ It has a nice ring to it. GOAT Distance Parity.

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

And they responded in grand style like the champions that they are. It was incredible to watch their comeback.

[Sir J (J9) @SirJarus]

I want Egypt to score another goal.

I want to see Argentina's response to chaos.

[B/R Football @brfootball]

Heroic 🐐

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

@Ssaasquatch Albeit that it’s a game of 11 against 11 and in football anything can happen. As the defending champion, this is not how you want to crash out. Not at this stage, not in this manner.

It’s all for the better and I can’t wait for Messi documentary and memoir after his retirement.

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

He knew how close they were to crashing out. This sport is just so amazing.

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

Even the greats call him great. And this was circa 2006. https://t.co/aStC0dqk0j

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

What a match!!! https://t.co/lsVrmclj0C

[ESPN FC @ESPNFC]

MESSI PASSES MARADONA FOR MOST MEN'S WORLD CUP ASSISTS 🐐

One of the greatest to ever do it 🙏

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

@unicodeveloper It’s really bad. I don’t see them coming back from this, except Messi turns up.

[Offiong⚡ @OffiongSpeaks]

This is a disaster 😂
