of course they are not trash, but i have watched other games besides this one this season, they haven't been as impressive as the teams i had mentioned earlier thats all.

i still think its a carrying job of epic proportions

The amount of them times he had to come off the bench and do madness says it all about this Barcelona team

He is beyond elite at so many things. He was born to play football. You see dudes like Giannis, MJ, Bron, Messi, Zidane and Pele. They could have been born anywhere and still would be GOAT. Messi could still be in the running for GOAT if he was born in Missouri City, TX. He is just that damn gifted.

Anywhere with some resources. No offense, some nations can't create a Messi.

Strange thing is Messi and Barca didn't play very well. They mostly defended well but Messi is so decisive and such an X factor that he's just a cheat code. The quick feet, the through balls. The strikes. Just absolutely glorious player. I just feel so privileged so watch this guy play football. Over 10 years of pure greatness.

My goat yall.

His balance, with quickness, with power is what gets everyone. He is small but he's so wide and big but quick. His in the box quickness reminds you of Emmitt Smith as Norv Turner said of Emmitt. Like teams want to tackle him but can't. What's crazy is, I've been watching him for years. He is still getting better. He used to want to use his talent at will but now he is letting the game come to him and still use his talent at will. Argentina might still have a shot in 2022.

Barcelona 3 Liverpool 1

Close, but it looks like I gave Liverpool
Too much credit to score.

Edit: I was drunk when I wrote this. Post-sober edit.

Don't be a hater all your life!!!!

Imo Ter Stegen was just as important, if he didnt have those saves the game wouldve looked much difference. Best goal keeper in the world at the moment without a doubt.

That whole sequence was fitting... there was nothing they could do but watch.
