Nice game.
Nice goal keeping, but awful penalties.

Barca players saving Madrid player's blushes since 500 BC..

Bye bye per Iniesta ,Without you a certain country called Spain wouldn't have won a world cup.

Mehnnn...No need to dey argue Iniesta matter against Ibime.


Man hate Iniesta beyond footballing reasons, even if Iniesta scores 2 goals with one shot, he still no go praise am...We no know wetin Iniesta do for him.

modified 2024

its 2020.

They want to change the format to an even year number,so there will be copa in 2019,2020 and 2024 . That's why Messi shouldn't retire, still has a number of opportunities to try his luck.

Krasid:
Uruaguay's Edison Cavani makes the list with 3 goals after netting twice against a Portuguese team [s]led by arguably the greatest footballer of all time. His two goal heroics against the Iberian nation saw him eclipse the Argentine and thus joining the illustrious list[/s].

Enough!!! That's what I want to know.

Krasid:
*List of players with more 2018 WC goals than Messi*
First on the illustrious list is Nigeria's own Ahmed Musa with 2 goals. Rumour has it that he achieved that feat against Iceland. A team Messi missed a penalty against coupled with his disasterclass.

Cavani......Cavani bro

With a brief explanation.....

Be careful who you take as your GOAT.

Ronaldo copy copy uncle


Messi was playing in Spain, Ronaldo do sobolation come.


Messi won 5 world best, Ronaldo did the same years later.



Messi posed with a goat, Ronaldo did a goat celebration few weeks later.



Messi did a shirt celebration at the Bernabeu, Ronaldo did the same.



Messi missed a penarity in a world cup, Ronaldo no carry last.



Messi crashed out of the world cup, Ronaldo did the same few hours.


Ronaldo be copying his role model both positively and negatively.


But....



whatever Ronaldo does, Messi is always a step ahead

Egbon, you are crashing out today.

Nihilstjnr:
[s]you were pointing out Messi assist.

I just showed you Ororo's goal.

Ororo has tried - he is the reigning European champion with both club and country.

He can retire happy.[/s]

Egbon stop consoling yourself.


Stop calling your Master the goat when someone out there has 2 world cups and over 1000 goals.


European champion Pedro was twice an European champion and also a world cup winner. So ?? make we fry beans.



Let us all nurse our LLL in peace jae

VintageByke:
LIOOOOOONNNNNEEELLLLL BLLLLLLUUUUUDDDDDCLLLLLLLLARRRRRRTTTT MESSSSSIIIIIIII.


OUR WORLDCUP BEGINS NOW.

Phewwww ,Byke has resurrected, Chai

So Cules can't wish the GOAT happy birthday again, but many can spend hours here because of the Messi/Ronaldo debate. Pathetic to say the least .....

Just about 31 years ago, an Alien was born by a human..... in Rosario, Argentina, the rest they say is history. He came, he saw, he conquered. Lionel Andres Cuccitini Messi,he has made us fall in love with football over and over again. Football is forever indebted to you. Wishing you a happy birthday and many happy returns.

Sharaap there.

NEPA no give you light charge phone when your guys were saying it that they are now Argentines.

RM FAM said it then and still saybit over again that Nigeria comes first.

Even in my office its like a curse. Barca fans are praying for Messi not even Argentina to qualify at the expense of Nigeria.

How sick can a fanbase be? No need answering since I know your logic/explanation won't comprehend the nonsense and irrationality of the stance

Sorry

kai

You still don't my point do you


I have seen many Barca/Nigerian fans that say they will support Nigeria on Tuesday, yet I have many that stick with Argentina, point it, You don't use the opinions of some fans to judge the whole fan base, that is prejudicial.


You can't judge people's patriotism through this means and you can't force it on there throat, there are many Spanish nationals that supported Portugal against Spain just because of Ronaldo but nobody judged them,everyone is entitled to his own opinion.



Just because you are fortunate enough not to be in the same kind of Portugal/Nigeria dilemma doesn't mean you should run your mouth like tap water. I'm only supporting Nigeria because Argentina has been piss poor in this world cup and even if they eventually scape through, France is already waiting for them which I think they will never escape an embarrassment.



Like I said earlier, I know many Madrid fans that will give up their kidneys, souls, their fairly used destiny in exchange of a Portugal victory against Nigeria in a world cup final. Don't make anybody feel guilty because Nigeria and Argentina are playing. It is not like they have committed treason or some kind of betrayal.

Lana1:
Sorry. Try again. This is the world cup. Not Euros

Alright bro, no qualms.

usbcable:
Poor man mentality dey worry dem.
Proper slave thought sense.

Down grading their own just because of another foreign entity. Later they will accuse companies of preferring foreign expatriates to Nigerians.


God please do not put us to shame. Grant us victory over Argentina in our next match.

Shut it bro....

I know 90% of Madridstars will do the same if it was Portugal , no need to play the victim card....Though I've read several of your posts saying you will support Nigeria if you find your self in the same position but you have to speak for yourself man, I know many Ororo fans that can exchange their two kidneys for a Ronaldo's world cup.


For your info... Naija comes first b4 any other team, Naija All the way

Lana1:
Hope Messi is taking notes.

This is how to score against, Film Directors, Dentists and Electricians.

Same with Ronaldo....He was unable to score against them at the Euro

Ibime:
On a normal day, Egypt suppose beat Russia.

These North Africans should be given only 1 World Cup spot within Africa.

I don't understand this your agenda against the northern African sides They qualified for the world cup because they deserved it, your so called West African heavy weight all flopped during the qualifiers.


Algeria did well at the last world cup, they nearly dumped the eventual champion out.

The guy go be one Maduman for real life...

Me just they perplexed with how he put -Lord at the end of every post even if na full stop or a line he posted.

Useless party.... This is June and they yet to present a notable candidate.


As for those shouting "Grab your PVC and vote Buhari out" Abeg who una wan vote for
Think again, Buhari will rule Nigeria till 2023 by God grace

Isiterere:
Coutinho in his usual territory . Boom

Coutinho doing the coutinho tin, Aswear he is the best long range ball shooter right now...

Sadio Mane masterclass incoming

The penarity record is not bad as they make it sound. You would have thought there is a gulf of difference between them but but...

Fact only

ddippset:
and i tell you solemnly

when ronaldo flops and crashed out in the group stage or second round,

as he always does,

we'll be on ground to give him a cold reception.

I wanted to post something similar yesterday but i just decided to pipe it down.


Imagine, just because Ronaldo broke his own tradition of scoring just once at every World Cup we no fy hear word again. Some people were even tipping him for the Balloon'd or just because he had a good game, what happens if they crash out in R16.


I won't lie, Messi's penalty miss yesterday was a bad timing due to the fact that his rival had a good game a day earlier but I'm 101% sure the GOAT will bounce back.

homesteady:
I'm not expecting firecrackers from Messi tomorrow sha, it's Iceland they are playing, they literally sit in their 18-box when playing against a big team.

Lol, one kunu for you.

I concur bro, I missed him and his madness.


But i don't think he will come back again, his leave has taken too long than Usual.

stuff46:
Byke is really missed here, no two ways about it!

Hahaahaha...

A typical example of Calling a dog a bad name just to hang it. Pathetic!!!


It is as if many people lose their sense of judgement and a drastic reduction of their I Q when it comes to Pep and everything relating to him. Must you appear shameless just to maim him I know he conquered Your league and did things no manager as ever done before but your inability to swallow the fact that he is bossing Your league is giving you severe nightmare.



Anybody with a common sense should know that Yaya is being hypocritical here, Abi no be d same person who whined about CAF not giving him the best player award despite winning the previous four editions. Cry cry baby at its best.



Yaya is a sore loser, he is yet to succumb to the fact that he was chased because he was unable to unsit Sergio busquet from the starting eleven at barca. Yaya is an excellent DM no doubt, probably one of the best of all time but it is common sensical to note that not everyone fits in to Pep philosophy or any other coach as the case maybe. Kante fits into the Chelsea system like glove but might look like an academy player when playing for barca ( ask Alex song) Same way Busquet will struggle with this chelsea side, that is no rocket science.



Y'all need to pick a struggle, Is it about pep hating black players or Pep hating Africans, both ways, Yaya's conclusion is lopsided. About six black players were core squad members of Pep all conquring team this season, some of whom were of African descent, when talking about Racism, everyone know that a person with a black skin is more liable to racist attack than a white skinned fellow even he is from Africa. in other words, Mendy who is a french player is more liable to racism than Mahrez who is from Africa.



Pep does not need to prove anything to any doubting thomas.Keita, Benatia, Mendy, and maybe Mahrez were either given opportunities by pep or are in his transfer list. It is not a pep thing, Barcelona as a club seldom sign African players. In fact, at present there is no African player in their squad, not even one. The last Africn player i can remember was Alex song who left long ago.



I don't see people slaying Ferguson for not signing african players either. In fact the only notable African i can remember in the fergie's list is Eric Djemba Djemba, but no nobody is shaking any table because he isn't Pep, y'all need to be subjective and don't let your hatred for pep reduce your IQ below sea level.



Lastly, as if i have not seen it all, some people were even complaining that Yaya left City unceremoniously, i dont get it at all. Someone who was substituted by Pep in order to get a standing ovation from the crowd because of his legendary status, please what else do you expect him to do, Solicit the Mayor of Machester's approval for a curfew and a public holiday in the city because the greatest player of all time is leaving the club Honor him with the Are ona kakanfo of Machester title just because he was signing off in my opinion, Pep did his best to give him a fitting send forth. Xavi was a bench player in his last season in barca despite being a legend of the club, ditto to Raul, Lampard and Terry all sat on the bench prior to their exit, they are all legends. If he is looking for a perfect example of a bad send forth he should ask Casillas abeg.




And those shouting Yaya should have been given more chance, how many of you can actually accept a 35 year old being in your squad,playing week in week out, i dont get this, Na keeper him be? if y'all can complain about Bakayoko's slow pace, you will definitely slay your coach for giving an oldie an opportunity at the expense of the youngster, Yaya wey be say na only name he carry for head like 20 naira last season, no wonder Barca and Madrid are jostling for his signature immediately he was released by city. Yeye dey smell.

philfearon:
Transfer has not even started bro. Calm down!

Lol, everything is pointing to the fact dat he is staying,well he is making an announcement next week, you can wait till then.
