honestly those small boys surprised me . They played their heart , but the defence was really poor , otamendi just isn't good

No b higuain again...na otamendi

Hmmmm....Brazil be messiful.....

D two football noisemakers, Argentina & England crashed... Or else we for no hear word now

Na wa sha, them no fit score 1 goal sef, that means Brazil don carry the cup

We all know that Brazil is better than Argentina.

Believe it or not , this is the best Argentina have played in a while , Survived an initial onslaught and took the fight to Brazil; could’ve had a few goals. Nothing to be down or ashamed about, in fact, I see quite a few positives they can take away.

Now hopefully the Federation resolves their issues and appoints a good coach – and most importantly – sticks with him for a couple years. And I really think this new set of players can win the next Copa America, do well in Qualifiers, and make a fight of it at the next WC too.

Really hope Messi doesn’t retire either, both he and the team looked the best they have in quite a while.

if kanu and Moses were players with similar stats and achievement, then the one with international trophy is better

story 4d gods.nearly cant kill a bird

there's only one GOAT and dat Ronaldo. other ones are ATURU

The result is a foregone conclusion.Argentina from the outset stood no chance Brazil judging by how shambolic and disjointed the Argentine team is.I really feel pity for Messi.There is no gainsaying the fact that he did his best but his unreliable teammates were not in synchrony with him.His woes with his national team continues which put him in a quandary between going into retirement or remaining in an unharmonious team characterized by paucity of cohesion and collective play.
As far as I'm concerned,both options are unfavourable to him.If messi retires without winning any trophy with national team,that is indirectly makes his arch-rival the G.O.A.T of all time.Conversely,if he should remain in this present unproductive Argentine team,I don't envisage his winning any major trophy neither regardless of who is at the helm of affairs as the coach because the problem buffeting this Argentine team is deep-seated.There is a clamorous need for total overhaul of the Argentine team which will take an appreciable amount of time to effect.
Probably,messi would be ruing why he did not opt to play for Spain when he had the chance to.

he was one of their worst player in the tournament

pained Barca fan...sorry ooo e go better...

If at 32, you think Messi would pull a Houdini in Argentina and lead the team to glory, then I'd say you just about have no idea who Messi is. At his finest, he couldn't even play to save them. The only two times he has scored and Argentina defeated Brazil were in friendly matches where Brazil featured youngsters.

Messi is way past his prime. He plays with lack of motivation these days, even in Barcelona. No one can blame him for hitting 32 and we certainly can't compare him to Ronaldo. It is unfair. Ronaldo is hungry and competitive, Messi is not. Messi would be 35 by the next WC which means he would have greatly declined if not retired already.

Ronaldo and Messi were compared at some point for not having national honours to their names but it changed in an instant for Ronaldo. At the Euro final, one would wonder why an 'old man' would cry like a child over injury, only to come out and take over as the coach.

Genius doesn't cut it in football. If you don't strive, the best hardworking player will overtake you. Such is the case of Messi and Ronaldo. History would no doubt be kind to Messi. He couldn't step up when the world focused on him the most and this he did severally.

You can imagine sports analysts saying Liverpool would not have been able to walk away with their comeback win if Ronaldo was in the Barcelona team. Messi was once brilliant and still might remain so in Barcelona but I don't see him doing wonders for Argentina at 35. I just don't.

you nailed it prof

NO SENIOR TITLE WITH ARGENTINA....SMH

zikter:
In as much as you exquisitely presented your opinion, I cannot totally be in agreement. For one, Messi like all his teammates was a disappointment in the competition to say the least. At the height of Barca's disappointing displays, we have witnessed Messi single handedly bailing them, same cannot be say at what he did here. If other players were not stepping up, it was part of his duty to make them do so, more so as the captain and star player. We cannot continue blaming the federation, teammates, coach and any other thing we can lay hands on, at each Messi's failure with the national team. In fact he should take the biggest share of blames as he takes the praises when there are little successes.

my brother na you biko.
that your last line " he should take the biggest share of blames as he takes the praises when there are little successes."

When will Messi announce his retirement ... That's what I'm waiting for, I must chop Alabi today o

I bet on Messi announcing his 3rd retirement

This news just dey sweet my belle... Messi shouldn't be compared with cr7 at all. CR7 is the greatest ever

Beverlyjean:
Trash...u just posted trash....that team have really really tried for him ..... More than what Portugal have done for Ronaldo

Goals without trophy is that one success

Is like saying arsenal is the best team in premiership.

If Liverpool didn’t win the champions league they wud have been no better than arsenal.

The same reason why Victor Moses is better than Kanu!!!

International trophy!!!

Which international trophy?

"Messi is like WiFi, he does not work well outside of Camp Nou" ... Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Blood of COZA!

You are wicked!

If kanu and Moses were players with similar stats and achievement, then the one with international trophy is better

I will always respect messi for what he has done for Barcelona and forever remain greatful to Ronaldo for what he has done for football~Zidane

If I hear pim from all these people calling Messi a goat.
Messi is a donkey not a goat. I repeat donkey
