We have Haaland and Mbappe of the new generation who don't even know how to score freekicks. How are we gonna entertained man, football declined massively
Messi catching the ball in his hand while getting up is the funniest thing ever because why does even that look weirdly extraordinary. Like some sort of magnetic power
This is probably the most liked tweet of an athlete. Don't think any player of any sport industry will cross these numbers until "maybe" Ronaldo announces his retirement
Just see how Messi scans the entire pitch before he recieves the ball to make a final decision to shoot. His iq is next level and this is why he is the greatest ever
I wanna kow how everyone can score a freekick in training in their first try but fumble in actual games most of the time. Not talking about specifically Barcelona only but in general
Dani Carvajal on Messi vs Ronaldo
“They're different. Messi is a player who generates more football, has better vision, passing, amazing close control, & finds the spaces while Ronaldo is one who looks to run inside the box, tries to find the spaces
When an entire league does a Messi prop you just know the stature and standard of that player. He is huge and he's the face of this Sport whether you like it or not
Lionel Messi needs to score
3 free kick goals to break Ronald Keoman's freekick record
5 to break Maradona's
8 to break Beckham's
9 to break Ronaldinho's
This is greatness. Being the greatest not only means you're extraordinary at football only but it's also about rallying a gargantuan crowd and your teammates behind you
@dksgyusolo
The fact that he even agreed to take a selfie while the score was 2-2 in the 90th min is crazy. He's never bad towards his fans, too good of a human
These effective skills are generally ignored by casual viewers but they'll appreciate useless flashy skills in football because it can be easily seen with the eyes. Messi does those skills which looks really simple but many people fail to notice how effective it is
Benzema 2021 - 22 and Messi 2018 - 19 is two of the biggest carry jobs in UCL history. Both were on a roll until semi final... the only different is Benzema had the help when he was unable to score (Rodrygo clutch goals for example) but Messi had 0 help
