Lionel Messi spoke about the win against England and making the World Cup final.
Messi had two assists for Argentina in their 2-1 win against England. The 39 year old spoke to the media after the match. Here is what he had to say:
“Let it hurt whoever it hurts and let them say whatever they want, nobody gave this team anything for free.
“Playing two World Cup finals in a row is insane, this group is incredible.
“Honestly, before the World Cup started, I trusted this group and knew we would be among the top four.
“Let the fans enjoy it like they are, now it will be whatever God wills.”
-Let it hurt whoever it hurts and let them say whatever they want, nobody gave this team anything for free.
Both of my kids we’re borned to support Argentina just like i was back in Late 70’s thanx to my oldman even none of us are Argentine regardless we will keep on supporting Argentina forever like we have allways done. Now both of my kids will be experiencing the exact same as some of us did at coming from 1986 as defending Champions of the world and reaching the final on a row at 1990.
i’m so proud to see them so passionate about it as it obviously bring’s back memories from past, but we are living totally different era now and i’m so, so gratefull for Argentina for all these year’s whether they have won or not it has been so unique in so many different ways with so many great players emerging constantly from Argentina, but what make’s it even more unique is the passion from Argentine’s as a nation, which is beyond anything in football and i truly hope, that their such a beautiful culture will live forever and will go through what ever obstacles they might had to face in their future live’s. This is what the world need’s as togetherness, that can be spread by football with forum’s like this connecting also Argentina’s fan’s from worldwide and hopefully making the world to become a better place for everyone in this planet 🙏 THANK YOU🙇 ARGENTINA🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Argentina created so many unforgettable moments in the last world cup and they did it in this this world cup even more.
We must win the final.
All odds are against us but we must find a way.
after going through hell since 1990:
– 1990 Losing to a questionable penalty.
– 1994 seeing Diego taken by that lady.
– 1998 Berkamp wonder goal.
– 2002 Bielsa suicide sabotaging mission.
– 2004 losing in the last minute.
– 2006 after fielding the most wonderful team (watching the end of the game with riquelme, messi, aimar, saviola, crespo on the bench but cruz on the field) this one hurt so much man just thinking about that makes me teary.
– 2007 Losing to brazil.
– 2010 Diego choosing players he saw in dreams instead of deserving players.
– 2014 losing final with brutal fouls from germany (Neuer, Hoewedes)
– 2015 and 2016 losing finals.
– Messi retiring.
– 2018 what a mess, still lost to the winner.
– then came light, Scaloni and Aimar took over just for 2 games. we were lucky they got the job.
– we lost 1 copa but then we won won won won and I hope we win on Sunday and look back at this team as the greatest team ever.
That Cia lady
PHENOMENAL VICTORY FOR ARGENTINA!!!! Everything just spot on, even the subs were pretty surprising! Except for Molina. At this point, if we can only put Molina or Montiel on that RB, I believe Montiel would prolly do much better. He was trying and trying.
There’s a fine line between terrible and passive (Molina) and, terrible but TRYING (Montiel).
El Diego was the ORIGINAL Capo Dei Capi and you’re looking at the 2nd 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷💙✊️
Make sure you watch Frenchy vs the Redcoats Saturday 🤡🤡🤡
I don’t even know what to say. Every time we concede, this team flips the switch and goes into beast mode.
Scaloni’s substitutions were spot on today. Nico is at his best coming off the bench against tired legs, and he completely changed the game. Other than Molina’s mistake for England’s goal, that was by far our best performance of the tournament.
Simeone did exactly what he was selected to do disrupt England’s rhythm physically and mentally. It worked brilliantly until Molina lost his man. I don’t think Molina will start the final. He hasn’t been able to do anything whether in attack or defense!
Give credit where it’s due! Depaul was outstanding against a tired England side sitting deep. Lautaro after missing a similar heading chance against France at the end of regular time in the 2022 World Cup final, he made no mistake this time. Enzo , MacAllister & Julian have hit their form just at the right moment!
And Messi… how many players have played in three World Cup finals in their career? We are witnessing history here!! If he was still playing in Europe it was confirmed 9th BallonDor but he doesn’t give a flying fcuk about it, otherwise he could have scored our third in the dying moments! But decided put the team above individual accomplishments!
Spain are a very good team, but when it comes to attacking threat, resilience, and finding a way to come back and win from behind, they’re nowhere near us!
Again Congratulations, Everyone!! One more game to go. We are about to create history and lift our fourth Worldcup on Sunday!!
i still remember the immense doubt around scaloni and co in 2018 especially from many idiots on this forum who are now silent, i cannot believe that was 8 years ago…
