For all his devoted fans, it is now unquestionable that Lionel Messi has cemented his status as the greatest football player of all time or as some part of his fandom prefer calling him, "The G.O.A.T" - a title he indisputably deserves.
Messi showed massive balls in this worldcup. He played with anger and determination knowing he had the whole nation and team behind him. This was his worldcup, he owned it.
Its so weird that Messi fans try so hard to make Messi look like the best while he is not actually lol... Messi is human being. He is not God nor Untouchable.. so many greats Players back then and now day deserve the respect.. but Messi fans svck his d i ck like he is the GOD lmao.. And mbapee playing better in world cup than Messi even in 2018... High elite politician of European and American aka white people literaly set the riged WORLD CUP for Messi to win it, to make him a Legend lmao. He got penalty every games to destroye their opponents mentality.. and in world cup their opponents are Saudi Arabia, Mexico, poland, Australia, Robbed croatia and Robbed Netherland... They even make Copa America every years for Messi to won atleast 1 THROPY LMAO.. and then magicaly invented bullshit finalisma so he can have 2 international Thropy just like penaldo/gaynaldo whos has EURO and UEFA nation league... So Messi THROPY cabinet not inferior to PENALDO... And if take a look at this, before Messi PSG get into semifinal and final of UCL 2 years straight in a row, after Messi they lose in big16/quarter final because Messi Miss penalty againts Courtois real Madrid.. they give Messi penalty every game in world, still Messi Miss penalty again as always lol. And don't forget the conmenbol make Copa America every years so Messi COULD atleast won 1 THROPY LMAO.. euro 32 teams only once every 4 years... Copa America 8 local teams + 2 invited small teams (probably Will not wining the THROPY) and celebrate almost every years by conmenbol LMAO... Still Messi couldnt won it before.. only Brazil and Argentina were the big teams.. in EURO the teams are Wales, Iceland, Sweden, Poland, Switzerland, Portugal, England, France, italy, GERMAN, croatia, Netherlands, Spain, Belgium, Serbia, Turkey, Czech republic, Denmark, Ukraine, Finland, Romania, Greek, Austria, Scotland, Ireland etc etc even you know wich team were Champ of euro2004... almost all teams were good enough that make me couldnt even remember all teams properly because almost are teams were decent and good enough... And yet Messi couldnt even won weak Copa America shit without conmenbol spaming the tournaments almos every years for him to win the THROPY lmao
With every moment from Netherlands game to the final my anxiety levels rose thru the roof, especially the penalties Messi had to take.. But he delivered, Messi the GOAT
☺️☺️☺️ you make me happy my man, you show me that you're one of the greatest Messi's fans like me, i even told if I had the possibility to give all that i have for Messi taking this World Cup, i would because its the only way to stop watching football with completely peace of mind, and i know that when Messi will retires so it will be the last episode of the football ⚽
Messi's statistics in Copa America 2021 : Match played : 7 Goal : 4 Assists : 5 Messi's statistics in 2022 world cup Match played : 7 Goals : 7 Assists : 3 So in this 2 big tournaments Messi play 14 matches, scoring 11 goals and Made 8 assists.
The most absurd thing is that Messi made as many wonderful passes as that one to Martinez against Australia and in the final against France and Lautaro missed them all.

Messi is also a great play-maker. Everyone talks about modrics pass to Rodrigo in the UCL but Messi is just as impressive. I can't recall CR7 ever making Impressive assists.

The boy was destined to be GOAT. Those who doubted him were emotional to their standing on the status of GOAT. The boy showed the world who he was during U-17 South American championship in 2003! From then he continued to mesmerise the whole world with such consistency and brilliance for 2 decades! He is one of a kind. The Best in the history of this sport! Long live the King, Leo!

I certainly love Messi and his football. He is without question the best player in the world on the last 20 years, nevertheless neither he nor any other can argue with Three time world Champion Pelé, long live the King!
@Ahsan Rubel: Someone sleeping peacefully somewhere has three world cups from four world cup campaigns. On the other hand Messi has one world cup from five campaigns! It is fraudulent to have the GOAT debate and totally ignore Pele! It is criminal. Remove emotions from the GOAT debate. The world cup is the greatest competition and the biggest in soccer. To be the greatest you have to win the biggest challenge. The bar has been set for the GOAT and that is three world cups(wins). There's a desperation to re-engineer the foundation and the structure of the GOAT debate so that it is biased towards Mess, it seems like rigging the debate in favour of Messii!! Can someone tell me why Messi hasn't won three world cups when he's infact been to several? It is because it is very difficult to win one! Three world cups is a very high bar for Messi! And it is not like Messi hasn't been to a world cup, he's been to a couple! Messi wins one and he's the GOAT!! No, there's someone who has three world cups. Winning one and being declared the GOAT is really lowering the bar so that Messi can get over the line, this makes Messi look weak! Messi is great but not the greatest. Being the greatest is not easy, Messi and Ronaldo would tell you that. There is so much bias, bigotry, prejudice etc in the GOATSHIP debate, so the best way to overcome all that bad stuff is to look at the numbers, numbers don't lie! Look at Messi's, Ronaldo's, Pele's and Maradona's numbers then decide. Numbers are the fairest way to compare! There’s no statistic or average where Messi is better than Pele! Pele was technically better than Messi, faster than Messi, stronger than Messi and a more complete player than Messi and most importantly Pele was a pioneer and remains a pioneer since no one is yet to do what he did! My emotional best and GOAT is Diego Armando Maradona Franco, but the historical, factual, rational, logical statistical best of all time (BOAT) and the greatest of all time (GOAT) is Edson Arantes do Nascimento better known as Pele. Yes I can have my emotional best that comes from biases and prejudices, ignores history etc but I don’t think the wider world would allow me to extend that beyond the real facts and evidence! Yes you can have your own opinions and views and the so called alternative facts but real facts remain real facts and it is real facts that shall guide and glide any high level debate! Additionally if Pele had the benefits of modern sports science and medicine, conditioning, diet, training and officiating of the game his statistics would even be mind blowing! And remember unlike most if not all modern footballers, Pele didn’t go to a football academy and still achieved beyond what any modern footballers have been able to achieve. Not the most perfect but the best way to compare players that removes bias, prejudice, duality etc and different eras is numbers. Here are the numbers: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mAjWwTVGZoU.html&feature=shares

GOAT is not just someone who always wins and has “ personality “ .. It is someone who faces failures like any other human being, faces pressure of entire country, who gets critisized and crucified but still comes back and answers every one with his foot and shown that in life you never give up…. People say he doesn’t show character… I dont know these people know the definition of character… Messi is the definition of character
Lovely comment! It is unbelievable how one can remain with so much pressure. Messi is a great person as well because he is so humble and kind even after being a global superstar. Messi is the GOAT!
Nobody can argue that Messi wasn't pivotal in the world cup. How: 1) his goals 2) play making and assists So would have Argentina won the world cup without Messi? I don't think so.
@@eolaaole6691 No one is saying his only contribution is goals. He created almost every attack in the opponent half, those assists he gave to Molina and Alvarez are in themselves enough to make him the team's best player. If Alvarez played every match instead of Lautaro, Argentina would habe been more dominaing.
What if you were born in Pele's prime tho? Like you all wanna act like Pele never existed I'm sorry I'm happy for Messi he is definitely up there with the greats but Pele is still GOATed af. Pele el rey de futbol!

@@TheFranpito the 3 world cup argument is one of the weakest that would speak for pele. get your history straight what pele actually achieved in these 3 world cups. also i dont get why team accomplishments would play such a big role when it comes to individual class. the real question is: has actually someone played the game of football better than leo? imho pele wasnt even as good as diego. he got boosted by fifa because of his three world cups thats all. and thats also okay, i think he was a good "fatherfigure" for world football. but it also got to his head, boasting the 12xx goals and such stuff...
I was a Maradona fan but now I consider Messi as the greatest of all time as his achievements speak for itself and also his calm down to earth personality without any controversies ie lifestyle or drugs .Messi has proved many wrong by being World champion.👍
@@murali19891 You know cocaine would make you play/fight/perform better right? It's a stimulant. In small to medium doses it acts the same way PEDs do. That's why footballers can be banned up to 4 years for being caught with it in their system. It's like a preworkout drink x10. Dangerous but if it doesn't kill you it will make you hit your PBs in the gym, in sprinting, in reaction times etc. The fact that dona was on cocaine and playing football means he had an extremely unfair advantage over other footballers.
I think as a symbol Maradona was greater. He came from the poorest place and became the best. Made things and seemed impossible and would have a can do attitude that would challenge the status quo everywhere. He gave the little men hope. Messi is an unworldly player, who is freaking fast, kicks amazingly and has a unique perspective of the match. He's not that much of a man who carries a team, but he's shown he can make others shine. He's down to earth humble personality, without controversies makes him more likeable. Personally I think now that Messi is better than Maradona, not just as a person but as a football player. Still Maradona will always be remembered as a unique symbol of disruption
this is not correct, because the planet will exist at least for another 7-7.5 billion years, while the sun gets that hot in the next 800-900 million years that water cant be in liquid form on the earth anymore ( i.e. life as we know it cant exist anymore). as of that point no spoken word will ever be heard upon the surface of the earth.
There was never a "debate". anyone who knows anything about football has always had it clear that Messi is the greatest of all time. he didn't need to win the world cup to assert that, but he deserved to win it more than any player in history.
Messi was already the GOAT before the World Cup but winning it just added to his legacy. One thing that sets Messi apart from all the rest was how his team mates were playing for him. They wanted to win the World Cup for Messi as much as they did for themselves. No other player has that level of respect from his team mates.
The first guy criticized Messi of not being able to carry the team after they lost to Argentina and after winning the world cup instead of accepting that Messi was as good as Maradona he twisted it toward fans bullying Cristiano whereas people like him trigger a war. If it was Messi in Christiano place, I doubt he would be this easy on him.. thats so bad.. I love Messi but I also respect CR7.. but such people who thrive on pulling others down should feel ashamed 😕 Sorry I meant after Argentina lost to Saudi first..
Bro that guys name is Mehran Rowshan and he is actually a messi fan and also predicted him to win the wc...in this vid they just put a part of his clip they didn't showed the full clip. If u search him on IG u will see the other vids
I watched this boy from Rosario, Argentina..growing up, and knew this kid had something, something different. 18 years I watched this magician play and I never ever doiubted him once. I supported him all the way....the bad times which were many, and the good times where he became a LION....and then the BEST TIME where he did not become a Lion..but became a SAVAGE !!!! HE is TRULY THE GOAT !!! Lets not forget if he really wanted to he couldve played for Spain and wouldve won at least 2 cups with them, but he said no...He wants to wear the Albiceleste for his nation. Gracias Messi, gracias Fideo, gracias Dibu, para ganar la COPA, y gracias molina, alvarez, Mcallister, Oti, todo el selecion y Scaloni.
I have always mentioned this, too. Spain tried desperately to make him switch, but Messi is Messi loyal to club, country and passionate about his game.
Moreno... He didn't come back for the pain. He picked himself up after every loss for the glory of the colors, for the number 10 on his back, for all the generations that came before and now the ones to come that will never forget his name. That's why he's the greatest. He did it for the joy and hope lifting the World Cup would bring to not only the Argentine people, but the entire world. He did it in spite of the press and former players turn commentators and assorted haters. People that tore him down for every human misstep or under par performance. He carried on even with the heartache of the losses and all the pressure of the world on him. Messi won the World Cup, not by dragging his team across the finish line, but by elevating his teammates around him. Still creating magic and inspiring those around him with his magic. That's how you win the World Cup. The World Cup is the exclamation point on a career that needed nothing more. Now the haters can be quiet and enjoy the magic of little man from Rosario on the pitch. I have cried, laughed, sang and jumped alongside Messi and all the players of my homeland. The story of Messi is one of never giving up on your dreams. Gracias Messi, gracias pibes. ¡Vamos Argentina carajo!

Unfortunately people like you that doesn't like the results are saying FIFA gave Argentina the title? For real? My brother let me tell you that you need to grow up a little bit more and not to be that sour !!! Viva Argentina carajo!!! WORLD CUP CHAMPIONS 2022 🏆
Destiny might be delayed but cannot be denied and what God has written cannot be rewrite!!!Messi is a gift from God embrace his presence and watch him before he hang his boots from the beautiful game.
His goal against Mexico and his behavior immediately afterwards is what really caught my attention from the outset of the tournament. He celebrated the goal with his teammates in front of the Argentinian fans as expected, but he stayed awhile longer in that same spot alone after his mates had all returned to the pitch. He yells “Vamos” to the hinchada and gives them a reassuring look as if to say - “Don’t worry, we got this.” It was a strangely paternalistic moment, like a father speaking to the compatriot children he was representing. After that the floodgates opened. He knew time this time around that things would be different with the squad that he had behind him. Man, the youngsters desperately needed that goal to finally play loose and be themselves.
nothing far from the real truth you yank who know nothing about the real game and the real passion. you people try to own all of the things that are away from you... just talk about your baseball, most boring "sport"
@@giannipudic305 God can only exist, for his nature. Messi has the best discipline (like Cr7). Maradona has the best football talent: he is the greatest player of all times, with an huge gap on anyone else.
I would never forget when Netherlands equalized at the death, when Mbappe made it 2 - 2, and again when Mbappe made it 3-3 and lastly when Dibu saved Kolo Muani's shot...These are memories etched forever in my heart...I was almost in tears thinking this heartbreak for Messi was forever...little did I know God was just trying to make the story more befitting and having a glorious end. GOD BLESS MESSI AND ALL HIS FANS
I first heard of Messi when he was about 15 years old. They kept repeating "he's the next Maradona." Whenever I hear a statement like that, I immediately get turned off and take a rejection to the player. I watched one game of his in Barcelona B, and he forever changed my mind. I knew he was different and I knew he would be better than Maradona. I played football, and I know the difficulties of the game, and this kid at 16 could do things that professionals at the highest level couldn't even do. I was a hardcore Zidane and then Ronaldinho fan, but when Messi came to light, he was the best in my opinion. From the start, even before his first professional goal. He didn't have to make 500+ goals, he didn't have to win the Champions League, he didn't have to win the Copa America, he didn't have to win the Olympics, he didn't have to win the World Cup. He is greatness embodied. He is and forever will be the best of all history.
And they say Messi was protected by the so called "Media".He was criticized heavily and openly mocked by the so called analysts who doesn't even come close to Messi.It became worse when Ronaldo won the 2016 euros,he was literally killed in his own country.Even in the last year in PSG when he could not perform to his expectations,he was harassed and became a laughing stock everywhere.I will never forget and forgive them,the hypocrites are now changing their sides now that Messi has wc and copa ,Messi with or without wc would have been a GOAT,I am so happy Messi didn't quit international football forever and decided to come back and kept chasing his dreams.It paid off finally. One more lesson I learned from Messi,always believe in yourself and keep on trying to achieve your dream 🐐🐐🇦🇷🇦🇷
HE PROVED HIMSELF, THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME AFTER DESTROYED MANY TIMES BUT HE BUILD HIMSELF SILENTLY TO BE THE BEST, YES HE IS THE BEST, THE REAL G.O.A.T ❤
He is a genius of football. He created something out of nothing everytime on the pitch with the ball. Feels like watching a magician performing his tricks. He brings tears and happiness with the game to all of us. He brings love and emotions to the entire world. Messi is a Miracle.
I like to respect eras and generations. After Diego there has been no other like Messi. We are talking about the last 25+ years and counting. Gracias Leo y la seleccion por el campeonato! 🇦🇷🏆
It gives me great satisfaction to see when many critics of Messi today rectify and show him the respect he deserves, it has been a long road and he has endured from offensive criticism to disrespect for his person... but thank God he was crowned world champion to keep quiet mouths.. MESSI GOAT🐐🐐🐐🐐
He's the best footballer I've ever seen, the way he plays this game is something unreal. He's the best dribbler we've ever seen, he's the best assister we've ever seen.. I'm not sure if it's possible to describe and even repeat his career 🐐🦁
A camera crew was following Messi in Qatar!? I was kinda expecting it since it was his final chance for WC glory, but still it's fantastic news! I can't wait to see that documentary! Messi the GOAT
i always thought messi doesnt need the world cup. now almost one year has passed since it happened and i changed my mind because of selfish reasons. i think december the 18th 2022 was the happiest day of my life and i dont want to miss out on that day anymore.
As Messi fan, I admire Ronaldo's dedication and handwork to make him come little closer than other players to compete with Messi, so that the rivalry and narrative could exist and lead us to that sweet moment when Messi finally held the world cup. God made sure we went through all that pain and suffering before giving us that final moment. Peace to you all!!
I feel honored to be able to see and witnessing the legend not only playing but winning the major trophies 2022 world cup so that 30 yrs from now no one can say to me there use to be a player called messi who was goat and I can say...yeah I was also in my 20s and 30s and witnessed such an immortal carrier of a goat truly honored.....10 willl always be my King
WCF 2022 was the first win in last 36 years which was celebrated all across the world and every corner of the world after Maradona days. World remember him as the one of the finest and best ever ambassador of game. Watching him playing bring spark in every one, to play football do things so beautiful and easiness like he do. He make the world better am proud to choose to become his fan.
I keep watching these videos on Messi. I'm glad the analysts have come clean and give credit where credit is due. Messi like him or not he is undoubtedly the GOAT. His performance in 2022 WC was amazing... He never gave up even after losing to SA. He almost scored every game (ploand game) he was a leader and showed up when they needed him most. I'm still in awe that they are world champions. Argentina Campeón del mundo
I don't think anyone can endure that so many fail but still stand up and make a COMEBACK... WOW... Such a strong minded person... GREASTEST OF ALL TIME
This is the best, the historical, the full of adrenaline, the comeback, the legendaries worldcup I ever watch.... this is the worldcup that end the debate of the best player of all the time and the show of the complete football player in the world
He already knows what to do before receiving the ball, and where each of his teammates are on field without looking at them, makes the whole team play, not only to score goals but also to assist, that's why he's the best. And in this world cup he finally obtained the leadership and character that was always demanded of him, even from Argentina fans. Gracias Leo for fulfilling my dream of seeing Argentina world champion.
Being in the same age with this man, i grow up watching majority of his games, up and downs. Full of joy and heartbreaking moments. But he always stands up & keeps going. This world cup triump put a beautiful ending of his football chapter. There will be only 1 lionel messi, irreplaceable forever. The GOAT
I think 🤔 the only wise in the world was me, because I always saw Messi as the best of the best since the beginning of his profession, now ❤he is near the end and with 35 years old is still the greatest, and Will Pass probably centuries of centuries, but another Messi won’t be possible, MESSI IS MESSI the rest is just history. I love MESSI ❤🙏🥰👏😘🥳😍🦁⚽️🥅🤩😀💝😁🥰😍😘😎🤓🧐🤩🥰🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Great video. Messi converted every doubter there was and sent into retirement ever hater that exists. It was Messi's world cup. His legacy is complete.
Antes de ganar Copa America y el Mundial ya era el mejor de la historia! No otro jugador pudo o puede hacer lo que hizo-hace Messi con tanta continuidad! El sin quererlo humilla a LOS MEJORES ARQUEROS, DEFENSORES, MEDIOCAMPISTAS, DELANTEROS, no hubo-hay nadie igual!!! Estas dos Copas con Argentina solamente sirven para taparles la boca a los ciegos que lo comparaban con uno u otro jugador!!!
the thing is they are not haters or hypocrites they just love Messi so much that seeing him lose make them say stuff out of disappointment i mean look at them all happy and they took back what they said in the past, you cant hate Messi
Never seen better and i very much doubt we will ever see better then Messi, he is a huge talent and we should respect him and enjoy him now that he is still playing
Not just the World Cup (of course this is the most important) but he also won the Copa in 2021. There is nothing more of significance for him to win. Also, people forget that winning the WC and Copa later in his career may have been the best thing for him. Look at Ronaldinho and others that won early. There is less motivation to continue with the hard work when success comes too early. That Messi had to suffer for so long first, makes final victory all the better
I don't think we should be saying either one is better...Maradona or messi. It's impossible to compare generations. What we can say is that both were the best of their generations. Messi is great, but there was a special aura about Maradona. He could fill stadiums even as a fat guy! We are all exposed to messi every day in club football and Wall to wall coverage where as in Maradona day appearances were more scarce. Maradona had way more personality....more personal problems...and a huge ego. That's why messi is respected. He probably needed this world cup win to receive the same adoration as Maradona....butvon the field hezwas his equal, and more consistent. I think its just childish talk of GOATs...very much an American thing. Messi was already a great without a world cup win --The club game is where reputations are made these days, unlike in Maradona and pele's time.
Messi es el mejor jugador del mundo y de la historia su humildad lo hace aún más grande lo único que hace Messi es deleitar a millones y millones de personas de diferentes edades con; caños , regates , amagues , gambetas inventa juegos con la pelota para embellecer al fútbol Messi símbolo mundial del fútbol
MESSI NEVER QUITS. NEVER EVER GIVE UP..HIS FIGHTING SPIRIT IS INCREDIBLE..THE HEART ON HIM IS UNBELIEVABLE. THE HEART OF A LION..THE HEART OF A CHAMPION.TRULY, HE IS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME..DEBATE IS CLOSED
He was the G.O.A.T before the WC but his legacy is sealed in the eyes of doubters and hypocrites who thinks otherwise that he must and must needs the world cup to be the G.O.A.T. Messi did it for them, to destroy the hypocrisy.
Why doubters? The fraud cried like a baby after missing penalty in his third consecutive final and quit from nationalteam for a reason... The only hyprocrites out there are messi his fan(boys)
The WORLDS GREATEST I ALWAYS SAID MESSI MESSI MESSI NOW EVERYONE SEES THE TRUTH WORLD CHAMPION NO PLAYER IN MY LIFE TIME WILL BE AS GOOD AS THIS MAN !~magic MESSI 🎉🎉🎉l
I think as much as we wanted to say that you don't need the world cup to be considered the best - at the end of the day it is obvious after experiencing the difficulties of winning that trophy that yes owning it does put you into the echelons of eternal great players. With that trophy Messi has cemented himself not to be along the likes of Baggio, Platini, Zico, or Cristiano , but to be placed in the highest regards next to Pele and Maradona. And for me, being the contemporary player, Messi is the greatest of all time.
Most Sensible comment I've read in a while. I just think we can't really compare generations though. Although players are fitter and faster these days...players like messi are protected ( don't receive so many dangerous challenges) conditions are better ( they play on bowling greens these days), lighter balls, easier to score ( change in offside rule) I would say that while defenders are better physically, I would say where are the really skilled players...the contemporary players are more athletes than skilled technicians which is one of thexreasons messi stands out a mile!!!...and modric, benzene who have been around a long time. Mostvof the special players now are speed merchants! Vinicius looks the best for me of upcoming generation for star quality. The past had many really skilled players technically with personality. There may be olauers these days with excellent first touch and passing, but how many can really PLAY....not that many....Baggio, pirlo, kaka, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Zidane...this generation doesn't have these guys...all capable of great forward play and goals.
