COMRADES, what is this all hype? Is Puerto Rico a strong team?

Messi the real goat
The world greatest
Penado how far

Goat for a reason. Viva Messi

Leo leo, Ankara Messi....... Mmmm

Ok....good for the GOAT....Let's see what happens in the coming world cup

194 appearances? Just 6 more and it would be 200. That's quite a number!

Messi is overhyped by Western media.

They should have allocated this year ballon dior to him.


Mbappe won this day Morden World Cup as as a teenager no western press hyped him.

Stop blind hatred

The hype isn't about his performance against Puerto Rico. The hype is the number of assists he has which Noone else has never attained. Or should they not count the assists because he got them against Puerto Rico?

Lionel Messi is a short fraud..

How old was Messi when he won the World Cup.

If Mbappe was white do think the media will be silent over his dazzling career.

I'm a city fan. Just look at the way haaland is being hyped.

All this media this media that is politics.

Ronaldo also set his own record on Tuesday. Highest goal tally for international qualifiers

No one can contend the fact that Messi is likely the greatest player ever in history of football, if only Ronaldo had not existed… he would have been flawlessly unarguably the greatest!

Thank goodness we have Ronaldo to put a stop to him, if not, he would have conquered completely with a record that no living human would ever achieve again

Imagine Ronaldo didn’t exist

Just imagine!
This human would have had like 13 Ballon D’Or. highest goal scorer in the world, highest goal scorer in champions league, highest goal scorer in international football… like he would have conquered everything

I think God sent Messi to tame Ronaldo, and Ronaldo to take Messi… if one of them hadn’t existed, the world would have seen a record that no one would be able to reach half of it ever again till apocalypse

I’m a Ronaldo fan but make we no lie

Nothing is overhyped about that man..

Same way Ronaldo… which player in history has ever been consistent for over 15 years if not Messi and Ronaldo

No one else! Not a single human being apart from those two

We are lucky to witness these two

Messi /Ronaldo … each of them are greater than Pele, maradona , Zidane… etc… those are great players but These Ronaldo and Messi are on extraordinary levels

No one cares about assists....Ronaldo set a new record with highest number of goals by a player in world cup qualifiers .... 42goals in 51 games ...wile Messi is on 36 out of 73 games ....u are here telling us assists....u think Pele and Maradona and fans back then cared about assists??

Messi fans...always trying to force assists down our throats

Messi became the greatest of all time by 2015, those mentioning Mbape, was he the only player to win w/cup? Messi is more than winning wc

The GOAT for a reason ygg
