I initially thought the 3rd goal should be cancelled, but rewatched it today and now know Salah fell intentionally.
Funny I understood this picture.
First one is the world Cup shadow.
Second one is the man's male part below grin

Messi Leo remains greatest player in the round leather game. 21 goals already, only Oshimen will beat this record. grin grin grin grin grin
Naaaa I'm a Messi fan for life but Mpape will beat the record because he is still very young and can still play two to three world cups.

There's a great value in holding a record before it was broken. Even if it's Just for a moment as 1sec.
It's etched in history. Irrespective of who later broke it..

Rigged. World Cup isn't even interesting anymore

A lot of people are not so happy right now

But at the same time
So many people are very happy right now

It depends on your state of mind

Messi fans are blessed and happy
But Ronaldo fans are so sad

So all these years , never knew pierre litbarski of West Germany was the deputy assist king , second only to the phenomenal Diego Maradona ! A wonderful winger with mesmerising dribbles and precise crosses before the figos and finidis .
Re: Lionel Messi Breaks World Cup All-time Assists Record In Comeback Win Vs. Egypt by Kingsvince(m): 1:51pm On Jul 08
Messi just keeps rewriting football history. 🐐 Breaking both the all-time World Cup goals and assists records is something many thought would never happen. Coming back from 2-0 down makes the victory even more special. Whether you're a Messi fan or not, you have to respect this level of consistency and greatness. If Argentina keeps playing with this fighting spirit, they'll be serious contenders for another World Cup. Congratulations to the GOAT!

To all the Messi fans calling out "Ronaldo"... You don't have to be dimwitted all the time. This post has nothing to do with Ronaldo. As a football fan, I've enjoyed what Messi has done in the game and I've also enjoyed Ronaldo's impact. Some of us actually like both players

He was assisted.
He is a cheat, arrogant and always assisted to achieve all the undeserved accolades and respect.

The G.O.A.T has done it again...He is now top on both goals and assists of all time in the world cup while the fake ewu comparing himself with him has been sent packing as expected. cool
We shall be watching a Norway v Argentina semi-final clash.

As for those bitter penaldo fans always shouting "RIGGED" as if na anthem :-

~It wasn't rigged when penaldo match ban heading into the world cup was overturned so he wouldn't miss one or two matches. grin.

~When Portugal were 1–0 down against Croatia, came back through a penalty, and Croatia’s late winner was disallowed, it wasn't rigged. grin .

~When Brazil were awarded two penalties in a single match against Norway, it still wasn't rigged. grin .

~even in this match It was not "rigged" for 78 minutes… but the moment Argentina scored, suddenly it became rigged. grin

~Also, Argentina haven’t even scored a single goal from a penalty in this World Cup… but FIFA is still corrupt. grin grin grin.

The only thing you guys and your fake goat from temu knows how to do is to always downplay Messi's achievements and efforts....keep the salty tears coming tho because it's normal for losers to keep on explaining while winners celebrate.🎊.
Messi missing those penalties is even good. Let them now call him Menaldo and we will remind them there is a better Penaldo. He's been scoring from open play and giving the penalties to Penaldo fans to feast on. Isn't that amazing?
It also wasn't a rigged match when the ref glaringly overstretched the added time unnecessarily?

Yeye people. Penaldo is watching everything, so don't deceive him. He already knows the truth.

Eiyah. Panadol is not costly; just visit a chemist. Pele. Life no balance. Why talking about rigging when it is an inconsequential tournament as stated by your god, the penaldostical egoistic "I am back, I am back" self-acclaimed 🐐?
Re: Lionel Messi Breaks World Cup All-time Assists Record In Comeback Win Vs. Egypt by Bleeze2: 2:27pm On Jul 08
Do we have to bring down the achievement of one person just to honour another?

I remember the same thing that happened in the bible when the women of Israel were singing that Saul has killed a thousand but David 10000. That was part of the genesis of the rival between both.

Let us always try to celebrate the achievement of people without comparing them. They that compare themselves with themselves are not wise.

Some people are still battling with low self esteem as a result of trauma from their childhood when their parents were comparing them with other children.

Let celebrate the gift of success and not bring people down.

Bitter and mischievous people will start lamenting how .

He has been FIFA boy.

Refrees have been assisting him

He only facing weak opponents.

Is teammates are the one helping him.


Human beings would just be bitter about every good thing and must find ways to bring it down. Indeed, God regret for creating human beings!

In the last 6 consecutive matches that Messi has played with the Argentine team, he has been the man of the match.

That's another record nobody seems to talk about.

OK. If you say so.
However, statements can infer multiple deductions.

You are saying Mbappe will break it.. Highly possible and even true by next World Cup sef if not this World Cup.

The statement kinda likely
infers that celebrating and stating this achievement at present isn't worth it since it probably won't last.
(not a deliberate and direct meaning from you, but inferred meaning by me)

Based on that, I am stating that while it lasts and it's being celebrated, it will be remembered in history irrespective of who broke it the next day.

I am not countering or arguing with your position. I totally agree with you even.

I am Just merely deepening the discuss from the same statement.

#Peace ✌

Mbappe will overbeat it now. WC goals are easy gor Mbappe to poach. He is the king of WC goals. But when it comes to playing making, assists, goal contributions plus goals, Mbappe can never be there. Those are what define Messi. Very creative.

There is only one GOAT. His name is MESSI
Have it in mind that Messi will have hug or give a handshake to you based on your skin color neither will his teammates or country men allow you near them even in Argentina

Egypt also played to defend a 2-0 lead. You don't do that against attacking teams like argentina...unless you are Italy at their best.

Egypt should have tried to score more goals, and brought in fresh legs for the defence.

Nothing like rigging.
WILL YOU SHUT UP THERE.

YOU AFRICANS ARE A DISGRACE.

IN YOUR WORSHIP FOR MESSI, YOU IGNORE THAT YOUR CONTINENT AFRICA WAS BLATANTLY CHEATED BY CORRUPT OFFICIATING IN THE EGYPT V ARGENTINA GAME.

THE OFFICIATING WAS SO BLATANTLY BIASED.

IN YOUR FACE BLATANT BIAS.

And you are blabbing your love for MESSI.

CURSED PEOPLE.
