Lionel Messi's 2026 World Cup came to an end in the final, following a defeat to Spain. Argentina fought hard but were eventually outclassed by Lamine Yamal and Spain. The Golazo Matchday crew talks A
I’m not a football fan, but I am a great fan of Messi! Why? He is the most hardworking person I’ve seen in this world ❤️ He has passed through a very difficult time of evening rejected by his country too, accused by negligence and absence of desire to support his own nation. But he never failed and gave up. Lionel Messi is the best!!!
Argentina was strong becoz of Messi and Martinez (goalkeeper), another brilliant player ❤️
The love to Messi doesn’t depend on nations, religions, beliefs, life positions - Messi is the Legend and the Only One! You deserve the love of the world coz you put all your efforts and dedicated your life to make world feel Argentina and support the country! That’s what is called a country hero!
I am sorry you are not anymore in the WC…. I was there only becoz of you!
The WC 2026 was interesting and unique becoz of you, so many pple crossed the ocean to see you live and pple like me dedicated their night times to watch you on different screens 😂
Live long, Messi! May Allah protect you and your family!
The first balanced take I've heard about this game. Losers complaining about Argentina's "antics" haven't played a competitive football game in their whole life. One championship and two finals in a row. That's a great team
The GOAT already achieved every single thing, this was just a side quest and still emerged the best player of the tournament. Happy that the best team won, our Barça boys made it possible.
And for the haters congratulations for getting the "MESSI CRIED" trophy.
For an aging team that won 2 back to back Copa America and World cup, Argentina deserve credit to even be in the final. After the Spain dominated back to back Euro championships 2008 and 2012 and a world cup in between, in Brazil world cup 2014, they didn't even leave the group stage. I remember the same Netherlands that they defeated 4 years earlier HAMMERED them as defending Champions along with Chile. That's life. You win some, you lose some. The great Zidane and company could not even get out of the group stage as defending Champions in Japan/ Korea 2002. It happens. Life goes on. Next generation. That's it.
forever my goat
(My goat🐐 won everything.they still barking because they know that's the only way left for them. Both sides of team hate u guys u still watching just to hate. Lol i can't be this shallow)
argentina reaching final was really suprising they dont even have that much qulaity no wingers having otamendi as defender now they need a new generation
Let's be honest, Argentina had young players that Scoloni refused to trust and the consequences showed. The team was tired and it showed. Had he showed a willingness to play three younger players instead of Montiel, Otamendi, and De Paul, it would have helped but Fernandez getting 2 yellows didn't and where was Lauturo....
Nobody demands Messi to win something else for Argentina anymore because he's already a world cup champion and even though he didn't win his second world cup, people are thankful for what he did. Congratulations Spain anyway.
To be fair it’s true Messi was missing a Di Maria that guy is irreplaceable.
Messi forever 💪👊👏👏
what a tournament he had. We witnessed greatness even if he came short in the end.
Congrats to Spain 🇪🇸 👏👏👏
