no video of goals don't waste your time
Its great and all, but look at mbappe. He's so young and has 14 goals. Sleep on that
Please don't do the tongue thing!.
Why are these guys trying to downplay Messi's hattrick? Sure, the first one the keeper could've done better, but the shot had enough power and curve away from him, or else he would've saved it. The second one only Messi (out of the 20 outfield players) was alive, alert, and hungry to be at the right place at time. The third one, he has always done it throughout his career, even if defenders were closing in on him.
It’s always funny to me when all this pundits or analysts think they can analyze Messi
Argentina won with a minimum effort
I started to feel bad to ronaldo and his fans
Messi VS Ronaldo GOAT question is analyzed here neatly
https://youtu.be/Nq-nvIN0OsI
Messi performed because the team performed. So you critic against the rest of the squad are nonsense
Hopefully we could see Argentina play with more convincing victory against Austria, that may be stronger than Algeria
Messi : 3 goals
Mbappe: 2 goals
Halaand: 2 goals
Ronaldo: 41 years old 🐐
Leo Messi the Goat💓
I saw 9.6 on flashscore he could have easily recieved 4 had the ref given him his penalty
He destroyed the so-called GOATS in their prime .. 😂 you people like to ignore so many things 😂
The best footballer of all time, the greatest in history. BY MILES. The most gifted, skilful and talented one. A precious gift from GOD. Thank you Lord for sending him on our planet !
The goals are already scored 😊
24 g+a in 27 wc apps is insane 🔥😮
Despite being a great player. Messi played dirty and deserved a red card.
Pessi fans always fooling at the comment section pessidog
Messi is football & football Messi
Saw a real Superman in Kansas. 😝😅
In my opinion, Messi is difficult to mark because he walks too much. It’s very easy to man-mark someone that’s constantly moving
15 minutes of 3 guys talking and zero seconds dedicated to the important stuff: the goals
👎
La sonrisa pícara de Leo cuando pateó el off-side antes del primer gol era una señal para toda la selección albiceleste. Leo sabía que estaba en offside, obviously… pateó igual y los argentinos vimos picardía con magia. Yo necesité ayuda de mi amigo Google para entender qué diablos pasó. Lo que pasa es que yo solo veo soccer cada 4 años y chau picho. Y¡viva la selección, carajo!
Theres a big difference between scoring a hatrick against Algeria vs against Spain. Just saying
wow, what Messi and Ronaldo have achieved is amazing, but Kylian Mbappé is only 27 years old, and he has 14 already, plus the all-time goals he has, I mean it all depends how healthy he stays in his 30's to keep surprising.
Only goat debate here should be mbappe vs Messi.
“Giving him a yard” is what everyone has been saying about defenders on him for years. They aren’t daft and dull; he makes his own yard. Messi doesn’t get given yards; Messi creates them as if it was magic.
With Algeria anyone can score
Matchfixing!! Messi had to get a dark red card!!! VAR ?????
Disgaree with him “walking around”, bro literally played defense, midfield and striker in one game.
