Not everybody will surely be happy with your achievement in life.

A nairaland explained this in details.

Gangster1ms:
You mean the staged tournament?

Never before had a team been awarded so many penalties at a WC. Always at key moments. Always controversial. No red cards despite being a volatile, combative team. Officials rarely penalised clinical fouls. Often the opponent destabilised after having such decisions against.

Going into the tournament there was a wave of support and a bandwagon for Messi to win the WC. It even played in the minds of opposition players who had been fed the narrative LM has to be a Champion or it upsets everyone. The propaganda was unavoidable as it was everywhere.

There's a rule which states Messi cannot be booked, let alone sent off. Yet any contact in winning a ball against Messi is a foul. A firm challenge will be cautioned. Etc. The most protected player ever. Because of this figure referees were reluctant to make calls against Argentina.

During the tournament Messi shamelessly dived, feigned injury; belittled and disrespected players and coaches right infront of them. LVG is an old man who had radiation therapy for cancer. He chanted radical songs in dressing room. Moaned at referees.

Yet never any criticism.

Maradona won his World Cup with solo runs against Belgium and England not getting a penalty per game without doing anything.

Messi is a great player and Argentina has always been a great team, but I don't think they would have won the world without some assistance from FIFA in the form of partial officiating and dubious penalties to give them a first scorer advantage, destabilizing the opponent.

Messi's hand ball in front of the referee was ignored and a funny penalty given to Di maria against France in the final, when he should have gotten a yellow card for diving.
This is just an example. I have rewatched all of Argentina's matches and if I want to fully analyse the instances where they had some unfair backing , this post would be too long.

I'm a Messi fan,but not as blind and emotional as most of his fan boys, so this is a non bias and personal analysis.

You see, Messi has successfully created a victim image by the unfortunate circumstances that riddled his international football career for the past years. Unfortinate incidence like losing the 2014 world cup finals 0-1 to Germany and Copa America finals 2007,2015,2016. Most of which brought tears to Messi and even led to his giving up and retiring.

With all his struggles, his fans in the place of football authority like FIFA are sympathetic to his plight and had to device means to ensure he wins.
FIFA preference of messi has manifested in diverse ways including from speeches by Sepp Blatter and football awards.

I'm not saying that Argentina did not work hard to advance like other teams. Of course they did. But just as class teachers like to pamper and push brilliant students who sometimes misperform, FIFA had to give messi a little push.

If my ascension is true, I expect this truth to be revealed as time goes.

This man talks too much and is too dramatic. This is why people don't take him seriously.

Hope he doesn't run himself down like Kanye West.

KennethEnyi:
Match that has already been fixed

How? Mbappe was instructed to score a hattrick, while his team mates were told to loss their penalties so Argentina can win?

Hopeba:
never never... we've been wrong for long.. Ronaldo shouldn't even be compared to Jay Jay

I love Messi, but this statement is trash.
Ronaldo has paid his dues and would be remembered as one of the GOATS to grace the field. I assume youre only trolling.

The internet is very quite today. It seems messi haters have all travelled to Peirs Morgan's house.

Clementoons:
Thank you JESUS for the win.

Moreso, JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY TO ETERNAL LIFE, no man can help or save you from the punishment awaiting those in sins, Accept JESUS TODAY AND BE FREE FROM ETERNAL DAMNATION

Hello, i'm JAMES, Can you mention me in your personal prayers. I was an atheist for more than five years. I want to get back to God, but having difficulties.

Please ask GOD to forgive and open my heart to recieve him again.
thanks

Chizzyjforce:
I saw this before the match. The French players are all afraid or the virus is affecting them.

You could literally see the fear in their eyes when they came out for the first half.

I expect them to come out strong in the second half.

It would be sad to see messi lose yet another finals.

Agentina must play like its their last football game.

Joshthefirst:
I hail you sir for remaining consistent on this platform for like over a decade!

Please show us the way.

Hello Josh, i have been so informed reading some of your post. So i decided to reach out.

I was a born again christian before becoming an Athiest in 2014 after been led astray by debates and posts from athiest on nairaland.(i have written a couple of topics about this).

Throwing away my precious faith and listening to man and the devil was the craziest decisions i've ever made in my life, which i regret daily.

I want to be back in fellowship with God, but its been difficult. I've lost my sin consiousness, conscience, faith and that fresh desire for God. Is there hope for me?

Please i do need you to reach out to GOD on my behalf, tell him to show me mercy. I don't want to go to hell.

Mr OLAADEGBU, sir please i need your help with prayers too, i'm dying. I would be glad if you mention me to God, my name is James. Thanks

Was friends with a guy in my 100 and 200level, until he started to be too clingy, visited too often mostly unanounced, wants to cook, eat, sleep in my house and be around me all day. I never had any space for myself.

I started to avoid him.

Those children are having mad fun, they're even shedding tears of joy.

To make your claim more believable, write down the list of items in the photo with their respective prices, including the location you bought them.

sthecy:
Croatia just make me loose sleep

You wanted messi to lose abi? Sorry o

For some reasons, your mum has decided to punish your dad by preventing his access to you. This is unfair especially if you don't get to hear your dad's side of the story.

Anyway, why was it neccesary to mention your ownership of land, cars and houses?

Oberhiri141:
No they did not, but at the same time tell them in your whatsapp group to reduce their begging begging habit as it is becoming overwhelming

You sound so weak. Would they kill you if you just say 'NO' to their demands?

The problem isn't them, it's you. You need to work on your self confidence.

When your little sister is way more mature than you

Exactly. everything about Cuppy must be on social media, she needs to respond to every one and everything. I'm waiting for the day she would table her inevitable divorce story on instagram. It won't be long

HISSCRIBE1995:
I understand what you said or meant by natural phenomenon -yes it is so
But partially true .

There is a place of you having wet dreams naturally
But there is another chance of you being manipulated by what you've done before n.

It opens door for that evil so don't push all aside

Debating with athiests is the biggest waste of your time as a christian.
You're are not only fueling their objectives, but discouraging christians who are following the thread. 2timothy2:14

Dem go dey shout Pendu anytime Ronaldo scores a PK
But you will hear nothing when the dwarf scores a PK
Dammmnn hypocrites

A seven ballon d'or winner, the greatest of all time, a football magician and a delight to watch.

What a dwarf!

Iamgrey5:
Argentina waste too much energy playing high pressure pressing early on in every game.

The exhaust too much energy and finish the game too tired and exposed.

Check out all their games and you will see the same pattern.

Na just today God wan catch them.

Acurate analysis. They usually play very poorly in the last few minutes. I expect Croatia to take advantage of that.

You womanise, you end up with STDs. You masturbate, you end up with erectile dysfunction.

No wonder the Good book says flee from all forms of imorality.

Snitch24:
Lol see you
Na these artist most of our politicians dey use launder money

One is innocent until proven guilty. Watch your mouth young man

jesusjnr2020:
Okay I would put you in my prayers. You can also send me a pm.

For some reasons, i'm not able to access my mail.

I'm James, and for some time now i've been trying to get back to GOD after been an athiest for years.(i have written a couple of posts about it on nairaland)

Please ask God to forgive, restore, make me his child and put his word in my spirit again. Thanks

jesusjnr2020:
You don't have to understand me, just ensure you are not humble in the sight of men but proud in the sight of God. That's the most important thing.

Hello, please how may i reach out to you, i'm in a mess right now and i'd love you to mention me in your prayers.

I've never seen a team as disorganised and dull as Poland. Playing like Eyimba

Argentina beginning to look weak and tired. Perfect time for Australia to pounce

I just saw a 35yr old Messi sweep pass 4 to 5 Australian players. Its been a while

Nicepoker:
Assist whenever you can. Someday it might be your turn. No matter the tears of a Nigerian girl I won't allow her sleep in my balcony. She can manage the dog's kennel after all they are all bitches.

including your aunties, sister and mum?

Say Jesus told her to do it..........

Maybe Gabriel Jesus

Celebrity worship is a disease most Nigerians are suffering from. These people are irrelevant

How can a man that has generated millions for many bloggers and content creators be irrelevant?

How can one of the biggest artiste in Africa who has given us hit songs since 2010 be Irrelavant?

Abi your head dey pain you?
