The GOAT continues to rewrite football history

And now mess has broken a record of the player with the most world cup goals is very impressive.
He missed a penalty and most people believed that it's because he doesn't want to break the record with a penalty, but Messi doesn't seem to be a type of person that is causious of the records his breaking according to Rodrigo De Paul, so I do feel he just missed the penalty and it is totally normal.

The biggest reason Messi is so good is that besides his talent, he's also a very good professional. He went to the US league, but he plays at a very high level in football.
Despite being 38 years old, he continues to break all the records.
It's also worth mentioning that if Ronaldinho hadn't retired from football at such a young age, Messi might not be as popular as he is today.
Messi is breaking records, but watching Ronaldinho is a completely different pleasure. He was at a unique level.

Messi it is an absolute player, What is the strenght that move him to make this type of match when he have nothing to demonstrate? A player of the first level, Sincce when I was child I ever seen a great player with incredible numbers. He can win a second world cup and in this case argentina and the football world will have definitively a new greatest of all time.

Ronaldinho's retirement has nothing to do with Messi's success. I am confused who told you that because it is not true. What's true is that Ronaldinho publicly said that the moment they saw Messi at the training session for the first time, everyone agreed that this kid is not normal and will have an extraordinary career. That sounds like quite the opposite of what you are saying. Messi had his place in the team no matter who his competitors were. He played with the best of the best and as soon as he had some experience in La Liga, he never really got taken off the field for substitution. He became untouchable in no time and now the question is still there why you think that Ronaldinho's retirement had an impact on Messi's career.

It doesn't matter because Ronaldinho played as a left winger at times while Messi could play a variable offensive position. He starts as a right winger, but when you watch him playing precisely, you will realize that he changes position very often throughout any match. He would have prevailed in any team on the planet no matter who his teammates or competitors would have been.

I believe that all Messi haters now will see that the talk about mess is not a hype but real. That he is the best player among the two because still giving out this type of performance at this level at his age alone should tell you that he is a different and unique player which has created records that, will take decades to be equaled by others who will be coming after him. It's just a shame seeing Ronaldo struggle with his team while Messi and his team are already in the second round of this competition.

I also see L. Messi as an easy going dude who isn't really that much interested in what the record says or in competition with anyone, he knows that he's good at what he does, he does it and I believe that's enough for him. So far, there's no doubt that that Messi has won the title of the most outstanding player, and of course the GOAT judging by the two games he's featured in the world cup, but i guess we'll see whether he'll continue in the same spirit or not, the competition has only started and more thrills are yet to unfold.

Maybe Messi was impressed by the importance of the moment, that he would become the top scorer in the World Cups of all time?
In any case, this is a truly great achievement for Messi and another argument in the endless debate about the greatest footballer in the history of football.
However, I have a feeling that this record will not last long and that Mbappe could surpass it already in the next World Cup.
Honestly, I expected a lot more from Ronaldo but he was bad in the last World Cup in Qatar and continues the same way in this World Cup.
Messi is a much fitter and better player at the moment and makes the difference on the pitch.

My friend, I'm not comparing Ronaldo and Messi. Messi is better than Ronaldo. Their achievements and successes show this.
I was referring to Ronaldinho being very different and how his career ended too early due to his lack of attention to his private life.
Messi has more than proven himself to the world. With his recent accomplishments, I think he's put an end to the Ronaldo-Messi comparison.

Guys, you can argue all the time whether Lionel Messi is the GOAT or not, but just look at his latest performance:

Isn't it beautiful? You can look at a sunset, an old cathedral, or a coral reef and be amazed by its beauty, but you can also watch Messi score a goal and be equally amazed.

Doesn't this goal Messi scored look a lot like the one he scored for Barcelona in El Clásico?

This goal was Messi's 500th goal for Barcelona, and the goal he scored against Austria also made him the all-time leading scorer in World Cup history. Both are incredible.

Well I guess we can agree that as far as the World Cup so far is concerned Messi is still the GOAT. Starting the competition with a hat trick and almost scoring another hat trick on the second game. Messi is truly incredible and there’s no argument about that, he’s an exceptional player, but the truth still remains there are other exceptional players too but so far in this competition, Messi has the title of the best.
