Ayolaw2003:
CR7 won it UCL in 2007 with Man U, den Messi won it in 2008 with Barca! He won it b4 Messi

Messi 1st won it in 2006

Adikam: Any cup wey Cr7 never cari messi no fit cari am

Like d Uefa supercup.
And Messi also won d champs lge b4 Cr7

ebullientV: Muller did score against Brazil..

A shambolic Brazil...
Well he won d silver ball,dat shud be enough

sulmeza: Fifa na useless body,imagine...all of messi's goals came against substandard teams...only in d group stage....God punish fifa

Robben scored in d knockout stages abi?

disloman:

No point..

ebullientV: Tap-ins or not, they were all counted as goals.. That's a knack for being in d right place @ d ryt time.. He created the most chances, but Muller had three assists so?

I respect your opinion but IMO, he didn't even deserve to finish 3rd..

Muller had 3 assists because he had beta team-mates.
Aguero,Higuain,Palacio nd Lavezzi were basically useless leavin Messi to carry d goal-scoring and creative burden.Thruout d tournament,no team depended more on a player dan Argentina on Messi.
Muller wsnt beta dan Messi,nor ws Robben who ddnt score again afta d 2nd group match

barcanista: amen. So many neSsi haters

Abi.I am sure if he had won d world cup,dey wud av created a thread 2 ask if he deserved to win...

disloman: n Messi played in d final n no shot on goal 4 d whole 120mins.Guy!reasonwith ur brain.

Yea,but Muller ddnt play any better dan him.

MaziOmenuko: In this same tournament that we saw James Rodriguez scoring 6 goals with 2 assists; Robben running down his opponents with ease, scored 3 with 1 assist; Muller scoring 5 goals, 3 assists and winning the world cup?

If they don't know who to give it, they should give it to my grandma!

Messi also had 4 goals with 1 assist,includin 4 man of d match awards.

barcanista: Argentina really put burden on messi and other teams formula was to restrict the World's Greatest. Higain and co didn't help matters. Next year's Copa, Messi will lead the team 2 Glory

By Gods grace...

ebullientV: T. Mueller had 5goals and 3assists couple with the fact he played very well 4 Germany in all games.

L.Messi in comparison had 4goals and an assist and didn't really sparkle after d group stage, where he'd racked goals against weaker opponents..

And he won d Golden ball? Absolute joke and bias by Fifa. In my opinion James.R, A.Robben and Mueller, even Kroos deserved it more than Messi..

The ridiculous look on his face after recieving d award, indicates he was as suprised as most of us..

Muller's goals were mostly tap-ins,Messi created d most chances,made d most dribbles nd won d most man-of-the-match awards at d tourney.
His face wsnt ridiculous,he ws jst sad.

naijalodge: To me its Arjen Robben,shikena...messi scored against weak teams,Nigeria,iran and bosnia...against Holand,he was no where to be found,Arjen robben ruled the whole 120 minutes or so....

Ruled d whole 120 minutes yet he completed only 1 pass in d 1st half nd had only 1 shot on target

Ruled d whole 120 minutes yet he completed only 1 pass in d 1st half nd had only 1 shot on target thruout

CFCfan: Congrats to the Germans. I think on the balance, they were slightly the best team in the tournament (Netherlands come a close 2nd)

As for Messi, he can win the 2018 tourney

Netherlands weren't beta dan Argentina

Sad Messi cudnt lift d world cup!!
But at least he has made his mark on d biggest stage!!
Hope he lifts d Copa America next year!
Till 2018 then...

Not many world class players in d team.The team looks ordinary without Neymar.

rutchiekens:

Your opinion but Oscar was their best player in this tournament.

Why are u hating on his talent. This seems to be a Nigerian problem.

Oscar wsnt their best player in this tournament.He went missing afta d 1st game,until d 3rd place.
Neymar ws easily Brazil's best player,not evn Oscar cud provide d inspiratn wen Neymar ws injured.

A solid defence,compact midfield nd well-worked counter-attacks are what's needed to defeat d German machines....and of course,Lionel Messi.Hope Di Maria is fit to play,it will make Messi's job easier.
Its ur time,Messi.God will be with you!!!

Giannakopoulos: which good team did neymar play against,and what was the results when he was there ,brazil couldn't win Mexico,Chile(except during penalty),they only won Cameroun and croatia who are mediocre teams,so think technically b4 u rate neymar and don't be a fanatic!

They won Colombia 2.Lets be honest,without Neymar,dis Brazil team luks ordinary.55 apps,35 goals,ova 20 assists.These stats are evn beta dan Ronaldinho's own...Brazil were gettin results with Neymar,its been a disaster witout him...

Even Neymar seems to be shaking his head for this Brazilian team!!!

Djamel Haimoundi of Algeria will officiate this game,becoming the 1st African eva to take charge of a 3rd place match at d Fifa World Cup.
This is been a good world cup 4 Algerians!

Backing La Selecao of Brazil to win dis one,to at least restore some pride after their ill-fated match against Germany.

I love this!! Nice one,OP.
Let me add my own.

It is narrated that the Prophet(pbuh) said:
"Verily,Allah has ordered me to join (seek to make relations amicable) with the one who has cut me off,to forgive the one who wronged me, and to give to the one who refused me."

Ramadhan Mubaraq!!!

May their souls continue to rest in peace!

Nice signing.Hope he lives up to expectatns!

Ramadhan Kareem!

Herrmes: He didn't? Take a performance average, but really what I think he's underrated, the media aren't justifying his performances by labeling him above average, I think he's decent

Yea.I think Barca limited him.Sanchez is a guy dat likes 2 be given his own freedom.U can see what he dd at d world cup.He ws one of d best dribblers nd d most fouled player.

Herrmes: I couldn't care less, my team is better than yours, all I'm saying is Alexis going to Arsenal Is a step back in his career like it was with Oezil. You just have to admit it, giving up Oezil was the best thing Madrid did last season, we won la Decima, now its Sanchez to the same arsenal, arsenal fans are rejoicing over a "good" player that flopped ay Barca and to think of it €40 million, Smh

Sanchez ddnt flop at Barca,you as a Madrid fan shud no that!

Sad he is leaving.Arsenal fans,I can promise you dat u r buyin a top quality player!

Hmm...Gud no lyf ws lost

mamagee3: Germany will roast Argentina on Sunday and Muller will be crowned Player of the tournament....

Messi never scores against Germany or German opposition.

If by German oppositions,u mean German clubsides,den u r wrong.
Messi scored a brace in d 4-0 thrashin of Bayern in 2009,He also scored 5 in d 7-1 demolition of Bayer Leverkusen in 2012,to mentn a few...
