I clicked on Peru vs Argentina a few hours ago and it had a Messi hattrick. I went to look at highlights but there were none, because it hadnt started??? Now he just needs one more goal for the Hatty. Did i accidentally see the leaked script before it started.
today has been such a shit day for the whole world i have been begging for a reason to smile. thank you leo
JAJAJ QUE MENOS MAL QUE SOY ARGENTINA LOCO
The commentator really had the orgasm of his life damn
actually got chills watching that live
Was that a dummy from Julian? What a baller.
yes for sure you can see he pulls out of the shot and protects the ball so it gets to the goat
Get my starboy on the pitch
this mf dont miss
Hat trick loading for Lord GOAT
so are they winning the Copa again? lol CR fans are going to be in hell if Messi is again called for BDO after he won his 8th
This goal gives me El Clásico vibes.
He still needs one more goal contribution to equal Soteldo’s night. We’ll see who’s the GOAT then
Messi has scored this goal with that exact shot from that same spot so many times and it’s just as good every time
Seriously, how is every keeper still late to make the save, did he ever shoot it into the other corner from that position?
This one was incredibly difficult to react to. It looked like the first guy would shoot (can’t see who it is in this clip), then it looked like Alvarez would shoot but he left it with a dummy, then Messi pulls the trigger in a split second from a position right next to Alvarez. No chance for the keeper to read that play.
Didn’t his first goal in this game end with him finishing into the far top corner, from a similar build up??
Go watch Onana and you’ll soon get an answer to why keepers shouldn’t be doing what you’re suggesting
Do you know how wide a football goal is? :D
With that speed and precision he would have to move beforehand, which would leave the other side completely open and would look beyond stupid since Messi of course can shoot to the other side too (which he often did).Its not that Messi and Robben and others always do the same move and every opposition is dumb for not defending. Its the precision and speed that makes it undefendable.
Based on my amateur goalkeeping experience, diving close to the ground is harder than in the air. That’s why Messi’s shots like this—especially when they are on target—are very difficult to save.
also the goalkeepers weight is usually on his left foot as he is naturally moving towards that direction as the play comes from wide to central. really clever by messi and really hard to get a good sharp dive to your right side.
yessss, thats very important. Great analysis! Same reason why they teach you to head against the direction the goalie is coming from. You catch them on the wrong foot, meaning they have to take an extra step
It’s automatic
don’t spoil our cheat code.
Thanks , saved me a click!
I saw your comment and immediately knew the style of goal
I just saw the top comment and the world same , I knew which kind of goal it would be. No matter who the player assisting, Messi scores
I didnt watch it yet: sounds like moving from right to left, shot into left corner?
risky risky wiggy wiggy this is an emergency
Im changing my last name to Messi and naming my future son Lionel
