Full on fan war between penaldo and Messi fans on X

 

I think ronaldo fans are a little bit logically challenged.

 

 

 

But mazaa toh hum neutrals ko sabse jyada aa raha hai.

 

I think there must be some inside joke among abdools where G.O.A.T in the finals became halal goat.

Indians are known for losing their sh** over people comparison. It is not just  Ronaldo vs Messi.  There was one  Federer vs Nadal. They would drag family of each other fans in to the discussion invariably.  I think in cricket we are used to comparing people. We have the same energy in these fights.

There is an article by an Indian in NYTimes on this unconditional love from BD towards ARgentina.  BD didn't really have any national sports. . IN the 1990s they were big Sachin fans.  Those were the heroes for them.

I saw some massive screens in Chittagong and Feni areas that Argentinans were posting on X and Reddit... Thousands of people watching.

Kanglus are mad for Football and Argentina

They are having a field day today... Penaldo was brutally trolled before and after WC...

Even his teammates were treating him like a baggage they are being forced to carry.

 

Portugal on paper was a very good side overall.

One guy is worth 1.4 billion  Other guy is worth 1.2 billion lol This is not going to bother these guys. It is only the fans that go nuts.  Embolo crying looked more genuine. Imagine you seemed to draw a foul and get sent out with a red.

English media is having a field day...  Enzo perhaps will have a tough time in club football from now on... Peak hatchet job by Pommie media

Apart from Brazil, which is known for its free flowing football style and scoring 1 more than the other team, no South American team is attractive enough to be supported fanatically.
 

Most of them play some sort of rough football. Teams like Argentina are driven by 1-2 superstar players with a global following.

Below is my rough tier for supporting teams: 

 

Tier 1: France 

Tier 2 (whichever team is playing good football in the tournament): Brazil, Germany, Italy, and Spain. 
Tier 3: A dark horse, an inform African team, Argentina, if playing well, and so on.

But in all honesty, Messi' aura has taken a hit after the finals yesterday. There is that collateral effect of his team's poor behaviour and his attempt to get Cucurella a red card.

After the bs first enzo yellow and  then the theatrical tumble for the next yellow...that referee should have been equally harsh with the Spanish actors....given how Argentina benefitted from questionable decisions...can't complain though and he made a legitimate goal a foul..so all good I guess

England should be kicking htemselves not to take them out.  They just had to block Messi. Nothing else But they left him running freely. If you render Messi impotent ARgentina is a minnow team. England's think tank is beyond pathetic.

They effectively neutralized him before they went into a shell....also Argentina plays better without Messi...look at their last copa America campaign..Messi didn't contribute much. And then the qualifiers which Messi missed. It lacks the magic but it is more coherent. Argentina was outclassed due to managers  lack of risk taking

 

 

He trusted a core group of players and didn't give chances it youngsters. 

 

The players carried injuries coming into the world cup or didn't play in top European clubs anymore.

 

Some like rdp or otamendi should not be playing.

 

Due to lack of roster rotation..the players were fatigued and injury prone in the final...we saw two of their cb injured .

 

 

This resulted in them not able to win or keep the ball. And then what will the team or Messi do...they were reduced to sending long balls but there was no one to take advantage.
