Americans React to "Lionel Messi - The Goat Movie - Official Movie" 

He is probably one of the most known human beings on earth.. A true global superstar! And also the simple diffrence between the superbowl and the champion league final, is that the entire world watches the champion league final..

He has stayed with Barcelona since he was a kid. Every year the kits change, you have an away kit and a home kit. They have to be different from one another. So thats why he has a different shirt on all the time, just because he has been with them for so long and so many years.

Messi dominates on pretty much every attacking stat but you just have to watch him play to realise how magical he is on the ball. No other player on the planet can do what he does week in, week out. Truely the greatest of all time.

Messi was arguably the most famous person on the Planet, everyone knew his name and how good he was. Great player. The great Barcelona Team with Messi in his prime years was probably the greatest Football Team ever assembled, they were practically near unstoppable on their day.

I love how you say he's a kicker. they are all kickers they play with their feet hahahaha he's just left footed

Messi never changed any team. He stayed(and still is) with barcelona forever. The different kits are different kits of the same team, home and away kits. Edit: sigh, farewell Leo

Most of the time you were watching Lionel representing Barcelona the Spanish city, not a country. These days Barcelona have fans all over the world being one of the best clubs.

Messi is from Argentina, Ronaldo is Portuguese. Ronaldo is actually a very kind and extremely generous man who has helped many people. I love that you're beginning to understand why football is called 'The beautiful game'. Great reaction, thanks.

And now he’s world champion!! 🎉🎉

for the americans that are new to the sport, 73 goals in a season is the most by any player by quite a bit. A world class striker whose job is to score will average about 30-40 in a season, sometimes more sometimes less depending on how good he performs, also taking into account that they arent as consistent as messi and ronaldo so they might put up these numbers for only like 6-7 seasons. Messi and Ronaldo have been averaging about 50 goals a season for the past 12-13 seasons. Also in the calendar year 2012 where messi scored 91 goals, that was more than some of the top teams in europe, like chelsea, manchester united etc

"The Clasico" is what they call the game between Barcelona and Real Madrid. The world was lucky to have the two best players in the world in The Clasico every year for a long time.

Now he had the world cup in his hands! This little guy is really the GOAT. He made it!

He is the best passer I have ever seen and the best dribbler and shooter and even when challenged by bigger players he stays on his feet the best ever player not just a scorer of goals but a scorer of great goals

He's never traded teams, he came from Argentina directly to Barcelona, who paid for the GH treatment. Today it's been said he's not with Barça anymore :( Very sad day for all culers (FC Barcelona fans).

Greatest ever!!! Never seen such a talented player in my 50 years of football life. So gifted yet so humble.That makes him even GOAT.

If the kit / strip (uniforms) are similar to the opposing team, the team that are playing "away" from home change the colour of their kit / strip.

17:54 Messi played for Barcelone for 21 years. The shirts changed every season but not the club. He was in Barcelona for 21 years before they cant pay him anymore and he couldnt play for free either, so he had to leave, no other way possible, sadly

He won the Americas Cup this year with Argentina

And in 2021 Messi finally get his national team silverware (Copa America) just like Ronaldo with his Euro. I'm happy for him. He deserves it. 🙂👍

Not just whole country. When Messi play whole world cheer for him

Cristiano is great.. have lot of footworks & stuff but man Leo is something else

each football team has 3 jerseys.. they choose it depending on whether the adversary has a similaraly colored jersey. Messi stayed in Barça his whole professional career, until this summer: now he's in PSG

Messi started his career in Argentina in a club named ''Newells'', then got transfered at the age of 12 to Barcelona and made his professional debut there, he also plays for Argentina (His country) in international football (Country vs Country). Now Messi has been transfered to PSG, Neymar plays at that club, they were best buddies in Barcelona and now reunited at PSG.

He's d real player...natural player..no unwanted diving..no acting..mesii♥️

A football team has 3 different Kits. Home, away and a 3rd kit just to avoid any clashes with other teams they play. The blue and white kit he was in is Argentina (his home country). He has lived in Spain so long that he was offered the chance to represent Spain but he turned them down (although he would’ve won a lot more playing for spain)…hes so humble

Great reaction. You guys are both very appealing. Nice insights on his play. I'm American and it's nice to see people, especially Americans, new to football/soccer watch him play and appreciate how beautiful it is - pretty good read for new-to-football.

It's cool how Messi's shortness could be seen as a weakness but he actually uses it to his advantage. Some say that it is actually more difficult to stop him because his centre of gravity is lower than most players' so he can maintain his balance and dribble past players without them stopping him. Rio Ferninand once said something like that normally you can push a player a little bit but it feels like Messi just runs under you before you know it. The talent, the skills, the class, just amazing.

Messi won his first international trophy with argentina last month. That was one of the biggest criticisms of him, for never having won a trophy with his country. Could you react to Lionel Messi against all odds, please?

Messi has finally won a major trophy for Argentina he won the coppa America 2021 this year

Messi is a freak of nature and ronaldo is what you get when someone devotes every second of every day to their sport. Both the best players of all time undoubtedly but very hard to seperate them

The El Clásico is the most watched game.

Messi actual copa America y copa del mundo! Saludos vamos Argentina!

22:59 The famous defensive line of Chelsea was so tough, it took Messi 9 games to score against them for the first time!

You two are really lovely and it's great to watch you together ❤️ Hope you continue to react to football stuff, there are so many players and stories that make for such good viewing.

Great reaction! Keep reacting to Leo Messi. He is the GOAT for sure!

He is indeed a GOAT

Messi stayed with Barcelona until 2021 when he moved to PSG. Various Jersey styles often change but usually have 2 or 3 SET designs that the team is known by

He arrived at Barcelona at 14 and he's still there now.

Ronaldo is from Portugal :) And to understand why he is brought into the video - You have to know of the biggest fan-made "rivalry" between two players in football history! There is Ronaldo - And there is Messi - No one stands out like these two do! You could easily watch the same movie on Ronaldo, and you would have the exact same reactions! These two are without any doubts the greatest to play the sport! Not only do they have an utter crazy talent to the game - Their dedication to it is on a level that has never been seen before and properly never will for a very long time! They have been on top of their game for 15+ years and are still going strong - Week in, week out! Take this into consideration - The greatest sportsmen to grace the planet are in many peoples mind the likes of Ali, Jordan, Woods, Maradona, Pele, etc. - Name one of these who stood out for so many years like these two? ON ANOTHER NOTE: Being a left-footed player is considered somehow "rare"(30% of players are left-footed) in football - There is not many of them compared to right-footed players. Theres been research done to see if left-footed players have an advantage over their counterpart - It tells that left-footed players have inverted brain hemisphere functions, which gives them an extra dose of unpredictability :) Which Messi is a perfect example of..

great review guys. thanks

You guys are so humble. I loved it

I'm watching this and I'm like there's a lot of things these people don't know😊😊😊😊

And he finally won the world cup...that is why there was so much joy about it..he kept trying over and over again.

Beautiful reaction. Hello from ARGENTINA🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷

He's the greatest guy ever to touch the ball. The God

Please do more videos on Messi ❤️

Pep Guardiola who you see as Barcelona’s coach is now the coach of Manchester City in the English Premiership.

Yes, you're right. Messi is really humble. He never calls himself as the best but he said there are many great footballers out there. Btw I Love your reaction. You guys really watched it very well, really pay attention to the video. Thank u!

I always watch your videos and you deserve a lot more subscribers.

4:48 this dude obviously know how big football is in the world circuit.. and his explaination was spot on !

Just come across you both and must say I really think you are both utterly fantastic 🙏 - Bristol, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧.

Definitely the best ever, and I have watched Pele, Maradona, George Best, Bobby Moore, and many others. I still remember sobbing with joy as a 9 year old watching England win the World Cup.

Basketball, Ice-hockey (and field hockey for that) and baseball (well for this Olympics) are all Olympic Sports

I really like to watch reactions where you and your wife are together. You complement each other and I like the dynamics you have with each other.

Basketball is in the Olympics. Skateboarding was also added to the recent Olympics. And yes there's hockey But as you said most other American sports aren't in the Olympics because they're played only in America. America isn't the whole world 😂

20:16 - I was in Camp Nou for that game (I'm from the UK and we were on a stag weekend in Barcelona). We were waiting for Messi to score his 300th La Liga goal, but Luis Suarez had scored two in that game against Celta Vigo already, so Messi decided to square the penalty to him and give him the hattrick - it was an unbelievable moment! Barcelona won 6-1.

I think you guys got confused with the ''country'' part, Barcelona doesn't represent a country, just a club and their supporters, while country football are literal countries clashing against each other, in that case Messi is from Argentina so he obviously represents Argentina, Ronaldo is from Portugal so he represents Portugal, Neymar is from Brazil so he represents Brazil, and so on. Clubs can sign players from all oveer the world, in this case even tho Barcelona is a spanish club, they can sign Messi (From Argentina), Neymar (From Brazil, Suarez (From Uruguay), Griezmann (From France), while countries can only have players that were born in a specific country, (Argentina can only have Argentines, Brazil can only have Brazilians, Spain can only have Spaniards), it's the best players from a country against of the best players of another country.

The greatest player to ever grace a football pitch.

Beautiful reaction 💪💪

Most teams have three strips, their home strip which is in their club colours and an away top/3rd top in case the club they play against have similar clashing colours, they have new different strips every season

Year end Messi update: 1. Messi has won the Copa America with Argentina, so he finally has one international trophy now. 2. He had to leave Barcelona (his club) after the management shot their finances to shit. He now plays in a French club called PSG. 3. He won the 2021 (and his 7th) Balon D'or award. He has the most Balon D'ors in history.

Those people in the video talking and praising messi they are all legends of the game

6:39 Argentinian spanish sounds just like italian because argentina has a strong italian influence, 50 to 60% of argentinians have italian ancestry, people say that if you mix italy and spain you get argentina. I was confused too because of that. great vid!

Argentina won the World Cup in Qatar in probably Messi’s last chance; so he has his world champion title. That large golden football is the Ballon d'Or trophy- basically the MVP of the world. Messi has won a record 7 Ballon d'Or titles (renaldo is closest with 5). Messi played the majority of his club career with Barcelona FC in Spain’s top league. He now plays for PSG in the French top league. Teams have 3 to 4 kits (jerseys) every year- home away 3rd alternate kit and sometimes a champions league kit. Top football players play for both club and country. When Messi is in that blue and white stripe kit, he’s playing for Argentina. It’s similar to say Michael Jordan playing for Chicago (club) and in 1992 he was a part of USA basketball for the Dream Team at the Olympic Games. Biggest difference is that footballers consider it an honor to represent their country, and always play. Men’s Olympic teams in football are 21 years old or younger (I think they can have 2-3 older players, but don’t know if that’s allowed anymore). Women have no age restrictions. There are quite a few USA players who are in European top leagues- unfortunately for us (for international play) many of them play the same midfield or attacking outside frontline roles. Well that was a long post 😂😂😂

He is an artist more than just statistics

Why he’s the goat isn’t his goals it’s his assists his power of changing a game just being on a pitch. He helped all his teammates want to be better and want the team to excel

Also the Champions league (as shown in most clips) is not countries competing, its the best few teams from each league in Europe. So they are still representing their club ie. Barcelona, Liverpool, Bayern Munich etc. For example it could have Man City, Liverpool, Spurs and Man utd in it who are all from the English premier league.

If 2 teams have similar shirts or colors , the away team plays with an alternative shirt , every team has 3 shirts for this case , and the alternative kit usually changes year after year , barcelona played with yellow , pink , orange , etc.

You guys may know nothing about soccer before this vedio, but both of you are so right when you analyzing this sport, that's someting attracts me to finish this vedio, thanks for this.

He’s left footed but also good at his right 🎯⚽️ That’s what makes him so unpredictable and one of the greatest of all time because nobody will ever do what he does

About the jerseys, is that most teams Home kit remains with the main colors, but they change the away colors each season, thats the reason that the jersey color changes, but he still played with FC Barcelona.

His salary from the club was 141 million euros and he proposed a 50% deduction by himself in his new contract since the club was facing financial issues and the club agreed but because of the league’s regulations it didn’t go through and had to leave the club eventually.

You are right when you said he would do it even not for the money. When he was young and made his debut for the Barcelona first team, he used to also go and play in the under 18s team and the reserve teams just because of his love of playing.

Each team has 2 or 3 different kits, they use throughout a season.

Ronaldo is not cocky. He has a lot of respect for Messi. Also Ronaldo does loads and loads for charities and is amazing with kids. You should watch some videos on RU-vid. BTW I don't support either of their teams so I'm speaking with no bias. I would say that Messi is probably the better player. Thanks for taking such an interest in the beautiful game xxx

Messi the the best player in history of the game no debate

Btw when a country hosts an Olympics they can add a new sport. Everything you mentioned is or has been a Olympics sport, baseball, basket ball, hockey (which is in both summer and winter Olympics)....NFL is literally the only one that isn't, because it literally isn't an international sport. Its US only. Funnily enough i am constantly amazed by how many things happen in America which they attach "World" to. Even rugby and cricket have been in. Rugby still is as sevens, cricket was only in the first Olympics.

he debeloped as a child in one of his city clubs thats nesells old boys.. the he moved to barcelona at age 12.. started professional career and played for barcelona and angentinas nacional team only.. so far

Messi has played played for Barcelona since he started until last season when he transferred out the club for his first time to play for PSG. Cristiano Ronaldo is not Cocky or arrogant, he is just confident and determined. While Messi is quite and doesn’t talk too much even at the pitch, but they are both considered the greatest footballers of all time. For example when Messi was at his best and everyone was calling him the player on the at that time, Ronaldo was good but not much eyes were on him, Ronaldo and his teammates were asked on an interview about who do they think the best player on the world at that time, everyone one was saying Messi or someone else, but Ronaldo answered “me” and everyone laughed, couple years later he won the golden ball of the best player on the world and kept winning it ever since. At the end, they are both the best players of all time and I’m happy that I have lived their era. Sop comparing just enjoy them.

In my opinion not just the greatest footballer of all time but the greatest athlete i have ever seen

How football shirts work is, a team will have a home kit in their main colours which will only have minor changes with each new one, this is the one you would recognise i.e. Manchester Utd/Liverpool Red, Chelsea blue, Real Madrid white, Barcelona claret and blue etc. They then have an away kit (2nd kit) witch they use when they play a team with the same colour. Normally the team away from home wears this. Teams will be much more creative with the 2nd kit as it just has to be a different colour....so Barcelona had an away kit in neon yellow and neon orange like you saw. But they have also had white, black gold etc....Big teams may also have a 3rd kit, sometimes called the training kit, which they may wear if they have exceptional colour clash issues.

You should do a "special" world cup update after the amazing 2022 World Cup tournament with Messi as the true global football superstar he has proved he is!

i can see you guys are legit.. keep it going.. and thanks

Both of you just got a new subscriber 😄⚡

the jerseys are also an away-home match thing, afaik teams have away colours and home colours, at least nationally

Even tho i am seeing this video for 10th times, i always got a goosebump

Our generation has been so blessed with, not 1, but 2 all time greats in the form of cristiano ronaldo & messi. They battled it out so many times,, and I dont dare to choose who was better, I would say 2008-2012 messi, and 2014-2018 ronaldo. in the End both are goated, discussion closed

Ronaldo is a great goalscorer, lots of character and a sculpture of a man. He works like mad for his image. If you want to build a footballer using an A.I.-Biotech machine, you'd get something like him. Physically gifted, strong and agressive. Nothing against him. Messi? He's something else entirely. Don't compare goalscorers to complete footballers. Messi is a gift from the football Gods. We will never ever see something like him again. He's a great passer playmaker assist-Grandmaster, dribbles like water striders and puts up pure strikers goals, all of those consistently for a decade and half. just everything. He is the final form of the beautiful game. If everyone plays like him, football would instantly become so much better. He doesn't dive, he doesn't talk. He does his talking on the pitch and lives a lay low private life with his wife and kids, few close friends. That's it. Messi is just a kid who loves football. When he retires football is over for me. Thanks Messi. Unquestionably The GOAT to me and my dad. My dad is 74 years old btw. He watched many of the greats from Pele (his former favourite), Maradonna, Cruyff, Zidane, Ronaldo 9, Dinho, Rijkaard, Kaka, Rooney and everyone else between those. And after seeing Messi, "I can't believe how he control the ball and he can shoot it!". Yeah we all have said that. He does things in real life i can't even do on video games. The controls are so fine it's unreal. Nutmeg and chipping the ball over goalkeepers is a thing he does stupidly beautiful it's impossible to not just smile watching it. His skills are all useful in that very moment. No flashy slappable nonsense and dive immediately after getting challenged, no no... Messi doesn't do that. He has made critical team killing passes while all his four limbs and torso is on the grass, mere seconds after getting tackled. He has played with a busted nose, bloody mouth, bloody ankle and all kinds of bruises and pain. Me and my dad watched many of those and we obviously root for him. My dad said Messi is not only better than Pele, he's playing football only he can. Ive written a 7000 word essay on Messi tbh. He's just a delight to watch and yes I'm a diehard fan. Hence the long essay...coz it's impossible to just say a few words on Messi. Gracies Messi

NICE CUPLE THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO

"you are watching the greatest footballer ever at the most absolute peak of his powers" love that from the commentator..Messi is truly the greatest of all time.

2 short stories I know of him that confirms for me how special he is. 1. He very rarely ever runs in the first 10mins of every game. The reason? Think of a lion stalking his prey in the long grass. He moves between the lines, watches what and where the opposition moves and does. He is a killer seeking your weakness. 2. A little story from the training pitch, The full barca defence was running set pieces when messi just arrived onto the training pitch. A wayward clearance landed next to him. He turned to eto'o and asked "what's the bets i can score". He then ran at the full barca defence took it past 5 and slipped the ball in the net. As he ran back up the pitch doing a fist pump eto'o noticed that he hadn't tied his football boots.

love to see the joy in people when they watch him play.. an ALIEN MESSI

To.score 73 goals in a season was unheard of. A striker who scored 30 was considered special

most new football players are learning and striving to be able to use both legs as equally as possible cause it's convenient for formations and long passes from the sides

in the past each key position has its number from 1 to 11 , 10 was reputed to designate the game-maker , the strategist (like the quarterback in NFL). The best players were often amongst them. Platini, Maradona, etc...

Magical Messi ❤

The yellow jersey was Barcelona's away kit. Messi has only played for Barcelona (club) and Argentina (national team).

Anyone who loves football loves both Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, unless of course you are a Real Madrid or Barcelona supporter. They have both now moved on as their famous clubs have run out of money and they want to make the most of their final years at the top. It is lovely to see Cristiano back at Manchester United, even not being a fan, he was part of a great team when he was there the first time.

Kicking the ball through a players legs is called nutmeging

17:53 They have to wear their alternate away-game-kir, when their own kit looks too similar to the kit of the home-team. It´s just so that players and viewers can visually distinguish between the 2 teams on the field.
