After scoring the penalty in the first half of the semi-final against Croatia, Lionel Messi passes Gabriel Batistuta as Argentina's all-time World Cup top scorer.

Since the 1966 edition, no player has scored or assisted in more different World Cup matches than Lionel Messi (13 – level greatest player of all time Ronaldo).

Lionel Messi has overtaken Argentina football icon Gabriel Batistuta as the nation’s top ever scorer at a World Cup after Messi who score 4 penalties in 6 matches so far in 2022 world cup

Messi opened the scoring with a lethal left-footed finish from the penalty spot after Julian Alvarez was taken down by Croatia goalkeeper Dominik Livakovic inside the area. Messi stepped up to convert from the spot and net his 11 th World Cup goal.

The Paris Saint-Germain superstar had levelled Batistuta’s World Cup tally of ten goals in Friday’s quarter-final progression against the Netherlands with a coolly-converted second-half penalty, before also scoring in the penalty shootout.

The way Nigerians are in love with Messi makes no sense. They glorify messi each time he scores fake penalty goal. Messi is not a good soccer player. I personally took time to watch messi's goals he has scored over the past 10 years, 99% of them came from offside positions. Referees usually look the other way, when Messi is offside. Is that what you--messi fans glorifying?

What Nigerians need to start debating is how to select 11 players to represent Nigeria in future world cup matches instead of occupying yourself with how mighty messi is. I don't get it.
I am not asking you not to glorify messi, what i am asking you is what is the goal?

Clown.

I fear the GOAT debate might come to an end on the 18th.
They will still find a way to chip ronaldo in as the greatest even if messi lifts the world cup. Funny enough the only thing they know their got has achieved is scoring the highest number of goals. Aside that ask them they won't tell you cheesy

So if an Argentine player is fouled in the box, the referee shouldn't award a penalty to please penaldians like you, right?
England had two penalties against France in this same world cup, so where the hell is this logic coming from? undecided
Alright, remove yesterday's penalty, tell me the the score please? cheesy grin

How old is CR7? Why are u guys this way? Messi is couple of years younger. What’s this argument all about sef? U think Messi will be this way when he gets to CR7 age? Moreover when CR7 was at Messi’s present age he was breaking records

I even have a feeling Ronaldo is just out of form and this has nothing to do with his age
During the last world cup, what did Ronaldo achieve more than Messi currently? He was 33 (younger than Messi's current age).

Every Ronaldo fan seem to be unusually dumb. I don't know why. I hope you grow some brain cells.

Don't mind him. He refused to write the full name to mislead readers. The Ronaldo is actually De Lima of Brazil, not Cristiano.

Am a neutral football lover...am a big fan of Ronaldo cos his one of the great things that happened to football...he has showed us time without number he deserves all the honors he gets....but Messi is a little superior ...it's just a hard pill Ronaldo fans still arguing has to swallow...fine I know most of u see CR7 as an idol whom u cherish and respect and have this personal love for but on the platter of performance Messi is more talented....I don't have problem with him scoring goals...but see how he still makes things happen in that Argentine squad..in the first half he was quiet at the start but each time he gets the ball u see his mates running....(does anyone passes the ball like Messi)?....hell Not ...not even the almighty Modric...yes...Messi can out the ball between anything and can unlock with a deft touch on the ball ..now that asides...he has a unique football brain...in the first half he was left upfront with Alvarez and he was still drinking away from people and leading attacks....this man is 35 for f***k sake ..Ronaldo couldn't do all this 2years ago...all we know about Ronaldo after he left Madrid was goals..Messi is the total package and that's why he will get a longer time to play than Ronaldo cos even if he can't run or dribble like he use too...one movement then a fast incisive pass will still kill opponents...even some 25 year old players don't have that technical ability

Argentina might NT win the wall cup....but let's rest Messi is the best footballer ever

Messi fans are fanatics, nothing you ever say can convince them otherwise. Their brains are wired exactly the same way as ISIS and Boko Haram terrorists.

There is absolutely no point arguing with them.

U Messi fans argue like religious fanatics. CR7 is way older than Messi. Wait till Messi gets to his age. What else do u want from him? His liver or kidney? CR7 even broke records at Messi’s present age


The problem with having sentiment in your dealings is that it just takes away honesty from you. You guys do say Ronaldo is a better goal scorer, he has more goals bla bla bla but you quite well know he started playing b4 messi and when it comes to goal ratio which is the actual fact of who is a better goal scorer Messi is above him. Sometimes I wonder how you guys analyse football.

Shame on you bias MOD. Please, name the teams he scored the penalty against to make it 4. You just like trouble. He has 5 goals- 3 penalties not 4

Messi is the greatest. H
