The system player Lionel Messi will feature in 3 World Cup finals, while the other guy, who can shine in any team, will never play in a World Cup final.
Messi reached a World Cup final without scoring a single penalty, while being the top scorer and assist leader.
Not taking anything away from his teammates, but this carry job is insane and Ballon d’Or-worthy! 👀
- FIFA made Messi complete 9 successful dribbles—the highest total by any player in a single game at this World Cup.
- The referees made Messi create 4 chances, including 2 big chances.
- FIFA apparently installed a precision scale on Messi’s right foot so he could deliver crosses with that kind of perfection.
- The referees somehow made Messi produce one of the greatest individual performances in World Cup history.
- FIFA also made Enzo Fernández strike the ball beautifully and bury it in the net.
Sure, “FIFA’s favorite.”
May FIFA and the referees keep “helping” you like they supposedly did today.
Your excuses are getting weaker with every game. Match after match, you’re only exposing your own bias and proving just how extraordinary Messi is.
Well deserved flowers for Cubarsi.
Well deserved flowers for Lamine.
…but please show more appreciation to Dani Olmo, has been balling throughout the World Cup so far.
