Messi's Eight-year Streak Ended After Galtier's Decision To Substitute PSG Star by ghettokid1(m): 10:09am On Sep 07, 2022

Lionel Messi saw a unique eight-year streak ended following his late substitution in Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League win over Juventus.

For the first time in eight years and 63 games, Messi was substituted off after starting a Champions League match. His streak began on October 21, 2014, and since then the Argentine had played the full 90 minutes of every game in which he had started in Europe's premier competition.
PSG beat Juventus 2-1 in their 2022-23 Champions League opener thanks to a brace from Kylian Mbappe, with Messi missing the last six minutes of action due to his substitution.
During Messi's incredible run of full 90-minute matches, he won the Champions League, reached the round of 16 twice, the quarter-finals four times and the semi-finals once.





Messi is the second top scorer in Champions League history, scoring 125 goals in 157 games in the competition.

Both Cr7 and Messi' era of dominance is over. Let's just celebrate them now instead of mocking at their travails

That’s life for you
You don’t expect him to keep playing full time in all games this season
Worldcup is this November n he would still be the main man to carry the team on his shoulder
At this point, even Leo himself knows dt he needs more rest than any other player in Europe because it won’t be easy
At least he isn’t playing Europa like d other guy

Yea bro, change is constant, who would believe that this average playing United would start benching cr7 in key games this season?
The key thing is that the World Cup is near, it’s cr7 n Messi last dance n they need to be in good shape for that
Benzema was subbed off last nite n him missing the World Cup in his best form of his life would be a big disaster
I expect madrid to use strict precautionary methods even if it means them struggling
