I love Messi and watching him play but these announcers..my word...Argentina is the best thing to happen to sports in the last million years. They REALLY love Messi. no reason to play the rest of the world cup.

I mean.. yeah. Announcers glazed the 98 Bulls too. Happens when you have the greatest of all time playing on a generational team.

Mbappe might pass Messi's record in this world cup. Not likely, unless Argentine gets upset early and France goes deep in the tournament.

He's only 4 behind and is 27 years old. He's likely got 2 WC still.

At 18, makes me wonder if Yamal will be up into those numbers some day.
