Barca. Football. Sometimes serious, sometimes not.

We could have lived in any time of human history, thankful we got to live in the era of Lionel Messi.

Beyond any debates, as we near what might be the ending of a beautiful chapter, I am just thankful that his time has also been my time.

The greatest to ever do it.

Who remembers that Ivory Coast LB Arthor Boka? Real OGs will know. Proper player.

[Ozi @ozicule]

He is the best as long as he wants to be. Wow.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Bouaddi is moving like he has a bikecycle under him. I am seated.

[Ozi @ozicule]

And that's what the best players do. Turn a game around out of nothing. Fairs, Vini.

Morocco are like a light Spain. Technicians all over the pitch. Agile, nimble and dynamic players across the board. Enables a fluid system with lots of rotations. They are playing Brazil off the park at the moment. Top stuff.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Morocco are playing like how Brazil should be playing. Top, liquid footy.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Probably the biggest clutch moment from Messi in his whole career. In a do or die game, just when Argentina looked like they were running out of ideas, Messi steps up and pulls this out of nowhere. That goal changed everything.

Say what you will but Messi's goal VS Mexico in the group stage will be my most favourite from this WC. That one goal changed the tournament for Argentina. They did not lose a match after that. "One more Messi moment and Argentina are alive." What a moment that was.

If we manage to pull off the Julian Alvarez signing, I'm afraid it might be over for everyone else.

Ridiculous attacking depth, quality and blend of profiles.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Wow, Arsenal really did it. Massive.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Ferran on his day, man.

I am starting to think that Barca might not need to sign a starting #9. Barca's CF has to be different than other teams' CF, and there are not many #9s who are better than Ferran at that. Only issue is his consistency.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Barca have the highest ceiling in all of Europe, and that annoys me a lot.

Just look at this football. Crazy stuff.

[Ozi @ozicule]

Top, top ballstriking. Marcus Rashford, ladies and gentlemen.

[Ozi @ozicule]

They are just brutal. What a team, wow.

[Ozi @ozicule]

PSG should trash this Bayern team and go back to back.

[Ozi @ozicule]

And of course finishers. Right after this tweet, Mbappe scored with a stellar finish. Finishing and ball striking is the ultimate momentum shifter in big games.

At the end of the day, UCL is a competition of fine margins, momentum and luck. Madrid have it in abundance. They have been here before, they know how to suffer, they embrace adversity. They KNOW they will come out on top in the end and the opponent feels it immediately.

[Ozi @ozicule]

2-2. but point still stands. Can you write Madrid off yet? No. Yesterday when Lookman scored, I had a strong feeling it was over.

It takes lots of years of trying with this group to learn how to manage these games, to learn to thrive in adversity.

[Ozi @ozicule]

@iFCBellissimo Totally agree. Very rare you have to the best team in the competition to win it. https://t.co/CXSUKbRHhG

[Ozi @ozicule]

Worst way to go out. The waaay better team over the two legs, getting your two goals inside 25 minutes today, missing a sitter few minutes after to seal the tie, keep dominating and miss chance after chance.

I really wanted to face Arsenal in the semis. Hard one to swallow..
