Defender marking Van Dijk on set pieces can't get in the frame even with 4k cameras

Messi can make top flight defenders fall over without even touching the ball.

Most the time he's just chill, looks like he's doing fukk all - more time walking than any other player in the tournament - then he scrambles the brains of a couple of defenders and the game changes on a dime.

Breh's the Mr Miyagi of the football pitch.

I can see this match seeing a record of yellows like that Portugal-Netherlands in WC 2006. Things are kinda dirty right now and could get ugly in the second half :patrice:

Pretty interesting thread on Messi and the way he plays. I also once read he spends the first 10 minutes of the game just wandering the field looking at how the other team plays. He's looking for weak spots and how the defense marks him so that when the time comes he puts himself in the best position to attack.
