After 16 years 9 games and immeasurable
pain and heartbreak Leo Messi finally
lifted His World Cup curse and scored in
the knockout stage.The kid from Rosario
is edging closer to his dream and he
just surpassed a football legend Maradona along the way.Qatar 2022 is the fifth and the last time the world gets to see Leo Messi on the biggest stage of international
football and the puga is making sure
that this one's for the history books,
after a shocking start to the tournament
Messi had found a way to lift his team
up and reach the seminfinal stage the only
place where he hadn't scored a goal
before incredibly so for a man who has found the mark 788 times in his career.So when the lb Celeste took on the sakurus at the Ahmad binali Stadium yesterday in what was Messi's 1000th game in his career the Pulga was not only up against the defensively sound and incredible physical side but also against the curse that's been haunting him for nearly two decades.
The first half was eventless to
say the least apart from the heated
exchange between Messi and Aziz beige at the Australian Defender couldn't have guessed that shoving the Argentina
Captain for no apparent reason was about
to cost his side an arm and a leg the
sleeping giant was awakened,at the 35th
minute Messi passed the ball to Alexis
McAllister who was at the edge of the
bus who then found Nikolas Otamendi the
defender's control wasn't anything to be
proud of but what happened in the next
few seconds was nothing but the Pulgas
like he did 788 times before read the
whole situation better than anyone else
on the planet you know just like Neo
does in The Matrix,as soon as he made
his first touch with the ball there were
no doubts about what was coming next
inside of his magical left foot connected with the ball to send it to
the bottom corner igniting the stadium
with the acceleration of thousands of
Alby Celeste fans.
Breaking the deadlock in the tight game and lifting his curse in doing so wasn't the only significance of the goal because it also meant that Argentina's illustrious World Cup scorers list was now altered Messi was now a goal ahead of Diego Armando Maradona whose World Cup tally is eight goals in 21 games despite an
unexpectedly difficult finish to the
game Messi and Company booked their
tickets to the quarter finals where they
beat the Netherlands the in Penalties by 4-2 this match was the fourth time
Messi takes the stage at a quarterfinals
game in a world cup and apart from the
one in 2014 against Belgium it was never
able to advance getting his dreams
crushed by the Germans on two previous
occasions,but now that the man shaft is
out of the tournament and his curse left
it as early as the final 16 chances of
lapuga going all the way are pretty high
don't you think if that ever happens and
Messi scores one more time he will
become the shared top World Cup scorer
of Argentina accompanying Gabrielle Omar batistuta are the football guards
offered him the trophy in exchange for
any Personal Achievement he might have
at this point.
We're pretty sure that he
would take it in a heartbeat what do you
think can Leo Messi go all the way to
the final can he score more and surpass
yet another Lb Celeste Legend make
sure to let us know Messi's Master Class
against Australia wasn't the only time
he destroyed World Cup opponents?
