I dislike when people lie to themselves. That booking for dissent was trash. Players do that all the time. Why talk about his sarcastic clap when the reason for that was the incorrect booking?

It’s ok that Spain won because they were simply better than Argentina. But let’s also stick to what we know is true.

Abi make I dey mention you whenever a player does the same thing? Mentions go choke.

People get booked for dissent regularly, a ref not booking for dissent is being lenient, and if we go by the rulebook, he should have had a red card for two separate incidences of dissent.

And in sticking with what's true and factual, Enzo staying on long enough to make that wild lunge was because the ref was lenient.

Me sef fit dey mention you whenever players get carded for dissent.

swiz123:
Make una rest… that decent is normal player reaction every Eke market day and ref won’t bat an eye.

Enzo was lucky to get one yellow card for dissent because he should have gotten another for the sarcastic clap after the yellow.

Any sensible player knowing they were on a yellow card would have moved with caution the rest of the game...the red card was fully deserved.

kodded:
Imagine if a CONMEBOL referee officiated yesterday finals and gave a spain player a red card and Argentina won the cup


Imagine the conspiracy theories that would have flooded the social media space 🤔

The reason you're not seeing any conspiracy theories is there's no basis for one. Enzo got fairly dismissed, first yellow for dissent, and the second for tackling like a wild animal.

Dodgy calls give rise to conspiracy theories, and Argentina was the biggest beneficiary of dodgy calls this World Cup.

Copa AméricaTop scorers — Zizinho

Na all this kin simple facts dey make Messi fans hate una... Can't you join the rest of us and pretend that Messi conquered every aspect of attacking football?

andrewbaba44:
I already said he should be punished for it

My only truth about Argentine national team that they will be average as Messi time is over ,or Wetin else I for talk ?

Na my boys wc dey sweet me abeg

Argentina will be fine, even after Messi.

This is a country that won the world cup twice before Messi.

drisham:
Mbappe really show you shege for you to hate am like this o😂

I think say you sabi cook

You just dey spam mbappe name since yesterday 😂

Funny thing be say Mbappe get nothing but love for their Idol o

Did Ferran Torres have a better tournament than Yamal?

Nobody could have ever predicted that Messi's last world cup game would feature his most tepid performance ever.

I doubt Messi has ever been involved in a game where his team didn't get even a shot all game.

Might be unpopular, but at some point, Messi should have been substituted in that game. His presence low-key held the team back in that final.

Copa America schooled overrated premier league

Isn't Enzo Fernandez a premier League player?

GIVE ME AFCON OR I RETIRE 😂😂😂

This has to be the ultimate Minnow farming in the history of the World Cup

Leyqute:
His fantastic goalscoring record se. Eye dey pain you ni?

How will Sergio Ramos, Roberto Carlos, and John Terry, all defenders, have more career goals than Iniesta, an attacking midfielder?

Make it make sense abeg.

Iniesta is arguably the greatest system player in the history of the game.

At the peak of his powers, his ability to recycle play was as good if not better than Messi, making him a pivotal part of a dominant Barca side.

That said, there are many aspects of his game that are inferior to other players, particularly when it came to being the decider offensively. For a forward player, his goals and assists output would always raise questions.

Those that adore him adore him, some even say they rate him over Messi... people believe that's the only way football should be played, and it's why they can't stand guys like Ronaldo who don't play in that way yet refuse to go away, standing tall in all the offensive metrics that matter.

Ultimately, the GOAT debate was very much a question of style... Messi and Ronaldo, comparable numbers offensively, yet very different stylistically, some chose Messi, yet couldn't abide people choosing Ronaldo.

drisham:
I don ask you to show me yamal world cup final goal at 19 you keep mute since
Celebrate your players world cup eje

Tackle Pedri and Bellingham talks with WC


Keep mbappe out your banter

E no get where you fit hook am 😂

Nothing sweet me as Mbappe confirm all time world cup goal scorer for this tournament...as soon as e confirm am, tweetus deletus and shalaye enter

It's not by goals yet they spent the whole of yesterday crying that Mbappe was playing third place match

Ellexy:
Una no like Yamal for here oo

You dey try force people to hate on Yamal

Let it be on record, the only World Cup Pessi won was off the back of a record 5 penalties.

Can't wait for those damning articles after this disaster of a performance by Messi and his Broski's.

Unlimited22:
Lmao this ref

God go bless am (this far)


Argentina just dey pay for their questionable calls all tournament

The biggest problem so far is Argentina needs to grab the initiative long enough to get those questionable calls.

andrewbaba44:
Na why you go cry tonight no matter what

Ronaldo fail ,mbappe fail too

Mbappe will have other opportunities, and Ronaldo doesn't need a World Cup to cement his legacy as one of the GOATs

Tonight kickstarts the world cup story for a new generation of players, that's something we can all back.

andrewbaba44:
Messi has 2 golden ball and mbappe has zero ,Messi might even make it 3 tonight 😂

I will say this anywhere ,agenda or not

Golden ball is an award that's voted on...the one that purely objective, Mbappe pass am.

Messi-fanatics and their innate desire to rubbish every other footballer to prop up their idol.

Potvalor:
Mbappe having 22 WC goals and 6 assists at 27yo, with possible 3 more WC tournaments to farm dey really scare most of these Messianic cult fanbase

Don't bother hating the man cos he will definitely end his WC career with at least 30-40 goals and 40-50 G/As range. Maybe na by that time you all will finally give him his flowers. Man is pulling UCL career stats of top players like Suarez in a once-in-4yrs 8 game tournament, and you wan hate watch am? Future premium tears await you o😹

They know hate-watching him is pointless, so some of them now pretend to also be his fans, thinking we'd forget what they put him through when their idol was in the same team as him.

andrewbaba44:
Mbappe wey talk say he would have preferred to be in the finals than winning the Golden boot playing 3rd place

Mind they wanted France to win the wc so they will call mbappe the wc greatest every player 😂

As he didn't make finals, at least he's getting highest goal scorer, and now is the world cup's all time scorer.

He still has at least 2 world cups in him, time go dey to make more final appearances in a tournament he already has 2 in 3 final appearances.

Omo see life oo

You for try watch the video o

England should move on from Pickford after this tournament

Mumu coach... Pack defenders full pitch hoping to defend one goal advantage reach end of match.

Should be praying Argentina doesn't seal it before full time.

Messi sabi pick pass sha

E no go tey again, Dem go soon begin hala say the loss no really pain them

This ref use style favor France for this match

Ibime:
We anti-Barca gang are really suffering this tournament

All hopes on England to save us

It's been ruff

CrystalTiger:
Barcola has terrible decision making and can't even get the better of any fullback so I don't understand what you're saying

A couple bad decisions aside, he's been the most lively for France offensively

fredoooooo:
Rodri make olise feel am say today no be joke

Con be like Kone for provide more midfield control pass Tchouameni
