He finished the World Cup for Argentina who after almost a miracle to qualify for the knockout stages of the World Cup of Russia 2018, he returned to the harshest reality receiving a corrective seriously by a France that at times, He passed over a Argentina caught with tweezers and leaving many doubts in this World.
But nevertheless, if a name sounds harder is that of Leo Messi, who it is much less to blame for what little they have made the Argentines in the World but who poses a magnifying glass to be called and considered by many as the best player in the world…not a World Cup.
And again and possibly last but not known, Messi goes out the back door of a World Cup and already makes four. For although Argentina reached the final in Brazil 2014, and FIFA decided to give in a way that neither Messi himself believed, the award for best player of the tournament, Tournament ago 4 years I did not see anywhere near the 10 we have been seeing more than a decade in the Spanish League.
After four World (2006, 2010, 2014 y 2018), Messi leaves without leaving any stellar performance for his country in a World Cup event. Even he will individually in the list of top scorers in the history of these quotes because in four World, He has barely managed to score 6 goals (1 in 2006, 0 in 2010, 4 in 2014 y 1 in 2018).
With over thirty years and apparently signs of being burned when playing with your selection, Russia seems to be the last World Cup event of a Messi whose mole on the World Cup always will come out when you compare with other great geniuses including his compatriot Maradona. The truth is that Leo was never equally wrapped up in Argentina in the club and if perhaps he had chosen to play with Spain rather than with their country of birth, possibly if he had lifted the coveted cup. But that may not know.
