you are telling me this is not rigged? Messi is given so much space.
>>
insane they don't man him up. make every shot of his contested, and lets see how good he is then
>>
>>155637249
seems legit
>>
messi plays deeper because it's harder for defenders to mark him out of the game without being dragged out of position and opening up space for other forwards

The game isn't rigged thru players, it's the refs penalty calls. It's unlikely Messi will get a yellow card all tournament for this reason
>>
>>155637249
It was a trick shot, the other guy faked that he was going to kick but just let it go and the person far away kicked, and that person was Messi, how does he find these spots, we'll never know.

whats insane about soccer is they put the slowest players on defense. In real sports like basketball and football, the defender is the fastest/quickest guy on the team. People have to earn their points.

>>155637249

or does he find the space? not glazing him but asking honestly
>>
>>155637249
A coworker literally came up with the perfect anti messi tactic: assign one of your players to shadow him, never getting away from him ever for all game.

Why has no one done this is beyond me.

That's called a bad defense

>>155640865
>The game isn't rigged thru players
its got to be with some players, some of them have to be in on it. Leaving it to the just the refs is too risky.
>>
>>155642218
No, the slowest players are in midfield dummy. After that center backs are the slowest because height and strength are bigger priorities, which is why the wing backs are usually some of the fastest players on the pitch to compensate. Try to learn more.

>>155642225

They did it extensively in wc 2018 and some time after. They stopped doing it when Messi left to Amoorica.
>>
>>155640720
it's a normal strategy in football, they didn't invent that for messi
>>
>>155637249
2nd goal was even worse. 3 defenders just standing around waiting for him to recover his own ball. More rigged than boxing

Classic trademarked Messi goal. Never seen anyone that good at it. His composure meter is off the charts.

this pretty much sums it up, almada was half responsible for that goal by letting that ball through

You didn't watch matches with younger Messi right?

Forget 1, sometimes they had 3 guys around Messi at all times.

>>155642703
its not 27 years messi, its 38 yeas old messi, man marking and have someone to cover would solve all this goals, but its too high iq to cape verde\ jordania \ austria \ argelia, hope you niggas face france

Messi is a piece of shit.

I don't think he is

i don't think you know a lot about football and how it works, let alone the history of messi in our nt
>>
>>155642298
Certain players can throw one or a few games but a system of biased rule enforcement can swing any match. Its not a perfect system and foolproof but when you have the best players getting preferential treatment, it's much harder for them to lose. This isn't new, it's a business and every major sport employs these tactics to sell more to the goyim.

Now you want to use TWO men to cover Messi. Dare I say... an even bolder strategy.
>>
>>155643388
i know a lot, messi just read the space and run, if you put a nigga to not let him shoot, most of open goal would be done, if he was this player he would still be playing in europe, just acept that argentina got the lucky draw and will face true opposition at semi finals right now. marrocos midfielders are better than all you faced

>whats insane about soccer is they put the slowest players on defense.
some defenders are slow but usually all of the best defenders in the world are quite fast, and if an attacking player on the other team is faster they use positioning and/or fouls to make up for the other guys speed. its a crapshoot of whos the fastest on the team, just depends who's available. also when you compare soccer to nba or football.. you're only thinking of the 30-32 teams in nba or football. in soccer there's 48 teams in the world cup out of hundreds of countries. and in regular season leagues there's hundreds of teams that have big fanbases competing for the best players in the world. so naturally you're going to see a bigger range of player attributes.

Can't mark everybody at the same time...

They tried to put pacey ngubu at the back in the 2010s but realize the position requires more IQ to play, ngubu CB tend to brainfart a lot. You see pacey CB more in a back 3 or in in high-pressing side. Traditional CB tend to stay back.
Also, Fullbacks - who makes up of the backline are always speedy to counter pacey wingers and help with vertical runs on the wing.

>insane they don't man him up. make every shot of his contested, and lets see how good he is then
people have tried everything to stop him throughout the years, the other teams who have faced him are not dumb. people have tried man marking him and roughing him up, he still makes good moments happen. he's seen every kind of team ever. defensive teams, offensive teams, doesn't matter. some players are just too good. they get that 1 second to get a good pass or a shot off and they win you the game. he's been in the game for like 20 years you think no coach ever was like "hey lets try man marking messi." some of his best games ever he was getting man marked and his team won by lots of goals.
>>
>>155642225
theyre gonna get yellowed in 10 minutes for any touch on him
