      Let's talk about football's so-called "greatest youngster in history" losing the *most* duels (a whopping TEN in the match) and finding himself snugly in Nuno Mendes' pocket, talk about a front-row seat to learning who truly runs the show. And while stumbling across the field, this little goblin conceded possession 22 times, not to mention his stellar contribution of just watching Mendes dart past him, gift-wrapping Portugal's second goal.
      This happens all the time with Barca: Yamal gets dispossessed multiple times and does nothing but take selfish shots straight at the keeper. However, since his team is dominating and comfortably winning, he slips in unnoticed until they are three or more goals ahead. Only then does this egotistical kid manage to sneak a goal, sparking baseless hype from his casual fangirls eager to dub him the "greatest wonder kid ever". All thanks to him masterfully doing little more than profiting off his team's hard work and striking when the victory is already sealed.
      Overrated and overhyped. But of course, cue the causals with their rallying cry: "B-bu-but he's only 17, leave him alone!" Here's a reality check: REAL greats, regardless of age, *consistently* deliver under pressure. They score game-changing goals or provide crucial assists instead of completely disappearing when their team needs them most, or worse, becoming a liability throughout the game. So comparing Yamal to all time-legends is nothing short of sacrilege to footballing greatness.

    Nuno Mendes should be in the BalonDor conversation. This man pocketed Yamal, then turned around and scored a goal and had an assist. Oh and he had an assist in the semis too. And what a penalty!

    I stopped by to watch how Portugal won and at the 10:51 minute and Diego Jota almost score in 120 minutes 😢😢😢. RIP Jota, vamos lutar no mundial por ti ❤.

    Nuno Mendes is such a baller on the field. My guy was pocketing Yamal, making counter attacks, and was the focal point of goal chances. He is like a new version of Alphonso Davies. In the defense but loves coming up and attacking.

      You're smack on 🎯
      PSG is the luckiest team on the 🌍 !
      Seasoned GK, solid central defense, outstanding left&right backs, hardest working midfield, sensational, fast & gifted wingers !
      If somebody can teach them to not needing 8 clear cut chances to score 2 goals; nobody can hang with them !

It'll be sometime to find replacements for Kross and Modric. and Luis Enrique is a great coach. PSG are the best team in Europe confirmed by their UCL win
