What made this win so beautiful to me was that it was as if the Argentinian national team wanted to show Messi that he can pas the torch to them now. He has raised them well, and he doesn't need to lead them anymore. His job is done, and now he can sit and enjoy the fruits of his labor.
Argentina reached the final match in 8 out of 10 international tournaments. Argentina lost to France in WC 2018 round of 16, and to Brazil in 2019 Copa America semifinal.
Football is not a show. No hyper-excited MC's screaming over the loudspeakers to arouse the crowd. No half time shows. You don't go to the football stadium to have fun, you go to suffer and support your team tribally! The celebration starts after the game is over and you won. If you lose you go home and mull over some beers. That's the sport!!!
Horrible pitches, horrible organization, 26 minutes half time! WTF!!! keep organizing NFL and NBA games where you are great at, but please stop trying with FOOTBALL.
he was a professional soccer player… and still thinks Super Bowl is bigger than World Cup.. that gives you an idea on how clueless they are about fútbol
ARGENTINA IS THE BEST TEAM IN THE WORLD ...AND IN THE HISTORY OF SOCCER THEY ARE THE TOP WINERS AMONG ALL TEAMS OF THE WORLD...OF COURSE FURTHER THEY ARE THE BEST TEAM IN THE PLANET.
In Argentina biggest football events you have to pass through 3 or 4 filters showing your tickets. You can't never reach the final entrance without one. Conmebol should know that and should have take the right measures to guarantee this.
The problem with Shakira is not the fishnet, it’s why she was there in the break AT ALL. Who needs a show in the middle of the game. And the fact that they made the break longer just to accommodate a show…I have no words. No respect. (Nothing against Shakira. Couldn’t they have put her before or after the game, though??)
What really annoying is that they actually sanctioned Managers during this tournament because they "came out late" to the second half... But for the final, not only did the game start like an hour late the also extended the halftime length to accommodate a concert.... That's just insane.
@@GMunoz-oj5zb that annoys me even more. If it had been US federation it could have been ignorance. But coming from Conmebol it is greed and a terrible lack of integrity. It undermines the Copa America’s reputation, and it is self-inflicted. (I say greed because I imagine they were trying to appeal to what they think is the non-South American US public by making it a more familiar format to other U.S. sports….but I’m not even convinced they want that.)
What you guys dont understand is that we argentinians love messi so much we want to win with him on the pitch, even if he is in a weelchair at the middlefield
Colombia was an underdog and it went toe to toe with the world champions. The behavior of Colombian fans is shameful. The whole Shakira thin-veiled body shaming by Lalas was uncalled for. It was just a performance that celebrated the event. Congratulations to Argentina. Colombia deserves praise for its performance.
You have to understand that this is what will happened for the World Cup. It’s pure madness for every game. Security and organization needs got be on point
This was the first time in my life that i've seen this things in football: 1-Religion officially involved, in the opening match. 2-An extended half time because of a show 3-no perimeter check points to filters those who hasnt have a ticket, in a final match.
Talking about a final and spend half of the talk on a crappy halftime show that nobody asked for (I hope I never see a halftime show in a football match ever again) is the most american thing I've seen in a while. I hope I had seeing your comment earlier
You are wrong. CONMEBOL asked to make the security ring like in all events of copa américa, and the US Security rejected te the petition. This is a USA Fault.
When Alexi started talking about the half time show I thought he was going to bring up the length of the break. It is generally agreed upon that half time should be no more than 15 minutes as players begin to heal and cool down after 15 min. of rest. You risk player injury with anything over 15 min. That is why we saw suspensions for multiple coaches who failed to return their teams to the field on a timely matter. That being said, I don't understand why COMOBOL would allow a 25 min half time show during the most important game of the tournament. The backup dancers are also important 😁
@@TruculentRuminavi How weird, in the last five years we've only lost 2 games and not a single brawl happened, and I don't remember any incidents in the 3 finals we lost... Are you really sure you're not throwing everything in the same bag?
What about the 25 minute half time? Only in America. I pray Fifa tells the US where to go if they try this at the world cup. Players can cool down too much and are more likely to get injured because of it.
are you serious, these guys are wasting time talking about Shakira? You go anywhere in the World, they know who she is...go anywhere outside Michigan and ask who Lalas is ...😉
Messi would never be problematic for the team. He's not Ronaldo. He would definitely leave or come in as a late sub if he realizes he can't play at all.
And it was the worst world cup I've ever seen. They wanted to make everything more "american"... well, football is not american and it will never be, deal with it
I don't know who the man on the right is, but to talk about the halftime show and compare it to any sport played in the United States is to have no idea about football.
I love when a lifelong Argentina cynic and skeptic (not a hater like he likes to clarify quite often), get his mouth shut yet once again by the World Champions. Lalas tenes atroden a friend of mine used to say, although I am not sure what it means…

Eso de los perímetros de seguridad se hace aca en Argentina desde hace rato y se logran reducir los amontonamientos o asaltos masivos a la seguridad. No son super bowls son partidos comunes de la liga de fútbol
american security had no idea how to handle a football match of this magnitude. It's not the same that a superbowl, completely different story, and they deny conmebol the possibility of a security ring which every football match in south america has and erradicates all this problems they had. But they think they are better than us so they didn't listen to the south americans. Very simple story, it's an ego story, you should listen to the south americans when you are organizing a south american tournament they have the experience you need. Asking the people to just behave good or hitting them with sticks, it's not how you handle any security in any stadium that is just ridiculous. Organizing before hand is how you do it. America has lost his humility they think they know better than everybody.
The fact that you took time to analyze the half-time show in detail tells me all I need to know about you: you know nothing about football. Any football fan will tell you there being a half-time show at all was a disgrace. Especially considering it went over the 15 minutes allotted to the half-time break. This is football, not some stupid superbowl where the spectacle is more important than the actual game. I turned my TV off once the first half was done and only turned it back on when I knew the second half was about to start.
If you are going to organize such a big international event relying on the fans doing the right thing. Then you shouldn't. Let other countries with more experience on this field.
@@NewMexicoRaza It's not just South Americans, remember the 2021 Euro final at Wembley? It's mostly on the event organizers, not just Americans, but CONMEBOL.

I was rooting for Colombia but Argentina did a great job of dictating the tempo of the game to their favor and they made life very difficult for the Colombians. Well played! I'm happy it was not decided by PKs.
Maybe Great Messi should stay with the national team but come in as a sub like Lautaro Martinez does. I am a BIG MESSI fan but clearly it's physically impossible for him to play the entire match. Honestly it's excruciating to watch him to suffer like that (poor performance and injury like that). MESSI does not need to prove anything. Angel Di Maria was Excellent, and he made the right decision to retire (perfect timing). He should be part of the future coaching staff if that's something he wants to do
For those who are interested in actual football talk, they only start talking about the match at 8.25, don't bother watching the chit chat before that point.
@@augustofigueroa1062 playoffs, no. Qualifiers. Yes. May Colombia stay during this go round and not play themselves out of the WC. Definitely contenders in 26 if they make it.
I am from Argentina and i completely agree the responsability was 80% Conmebol 10% US 10% fans breaking the law. Because even if US is responsible for security then Conmebol has the obligation to check that it is done right, They didn´t, so the responsability belongs to Conmebol. This happens all the time with Conmebol, not just in US. Also happened in Brasil and other countries.
Game was not delayed for 82 minutes bc fans rushed the gates. It’s was delayed bc fans were hurtled like cattle. Delayed bc organizers had no business organizing this event. More checkpoints farther from the stadium would have solved a lot of this
@@ortforshort7652 he is an old man in football terms now but he’s earn’t the right to wind down the clock in Miami. I’d be surprised if we see him in an Argie shirt anymore and i dare say, he’ll play this and next season with Miami and that will be it. The man owes the game nothing, it owes him!
@@nicolasrecupero3026 as a from the beginning Messi fan, you are right. I hope he see’s it first and it doesn’t see him. A great way to go out winning the Copa as captain but the team now know that they will be ok without him and Di Maria.
You people (West) would have lectured and blamed other people if it happened there..😃 . we're familiar with your game. 🙏Learn to accept, you need that further 😂
It was not an event organized only by CONMEBOL, it was organized by USA and did not pay attention to the suggestions of CONMEBOL, anyone who goes to a FOOTBALL event in South America knows that there should be 5 safety rings and in this one there was only one. If the USA organizes the World Cup like this with these horrible fields that are useless to play on + how insecure the country is, it will end badly. And what about putting on a show at halftime? What was that? This is football, it does not need more emotion, it is a waste of time and undermines the players' performance.
All coaches think about replacements, due to wear and tear and areas; Scaloni plans the changes, before the game, to kill at the right moment. He is a great strategist!!
Para entender realmente el fútbol, hay que entender su folclore y todo lo que significa para cada cultura. Cuando dicen que Argentina se crece ante las adversidades... Es cierto, pero no termina sólo ahí. Abrazo de gol!
Using a small stadium to host the final of one of the greatest sports in the world this was doomed from the beginning they should have used a bigger stadium and enclosed at least i noticed how the teams were pouring sweat that mean they needed to be hydrated constantly
I don't know who he is and what he is talking about. It clearly seems that he doesn't know anything about football and every time he brings out super bowl. Football is way bigger and beyond any sport.
So Alexi is a pop music entertainment critic now? Stay in your lane for goodness sake. The real issue is extending the standard 15 minute FIFA designated half-time.
As a woman I didn’t notice any cellulite 😩 I was at a big watch party 400-500 people, we were all caught up in the performance we don’t notice the lighting on her body
ironically the 2 biggest issues with Copa crowds came with Colombia as the common denominator, look at that... i get it 3 finals in 100 yrs will do that to a small futbol country
Yeah, but stilll this was more Conmebol/USA's fault. They needed to put more controls for the fans before getting to stadium. If they had done that from the beginning there wouldn't have been any problems, no matter how excited the colombian fans were.
Come out and deride Colombia openly in readable English! As for we being a small soccer country... why, we licked you 5-0 on your own turf, followed by 3-0 and 2-0 back then! Stats between Colombia and any powerhouse country over the last 35 years are good, balanced. We again stand in the FIFA top 10 and did so for over 25 years since the 1990, even top 5 for over 10 years. Get your bearings right and see you in September.
Is Argentina the best team in the word?
? Wtf is this question. Imagine winning every major event in the last 5 years and not being the best team on the planet
...but the age depth and the bench power of Spain - so excited!
Yes, they are in fact the best team in the word😂
They are WORLD Champions!
Yup. And yet "soccer" as a concept is light years away from your comprehension Lalas.
In the last 5 years Argentina only lost 2 games. and won 4 titles. Not much to add.
Wich 2 of them were Copa America and World Cup.

Angel Di Maria was Excellent, and he made the right decision to retire (perfect timing). He should be part of the future coaching staff if that's something he wants to do
For those who are interested in actual football talk, they only start talking about the match at 8.25, don't bother watching the chit chat before that point.
This Argentina team is a family not just a team!!! They’ve been like that for the last 3-4 years
Vamos Argentina 🇦🇷⭐️⭐️⭐️🏆x16
Colombia. You can start a new streak now, until you play Argentina again.
Well, we meet again come September in Barranquilla. Playoffs.
@@augustofigueroa1062 playoffs, no. Qualifiers. Yes. May Colombia stay during this go round and not play themselves out of the WC. Definitely contenders in 26 if they make it.
This is the best sport ever that small stadium can't resist the pressure
The cream always rises to the top.
US stadium are not prepared with this kind of crowd
Not when a lot of the fans act like animals.
@@Juanchih But they are. Is not that difficult
I am from Argentina and i completely agree the responsability was 80% Conmebol 10% US 10% fans breaking the law. Because even if US is responsible for security then Conmebol has the obligation to check that it is done right, They didn´t, so the responsability belongs to Conmebol. This happens all the time with Conmebol, not just in US. Also happened in Brasil and other countries.
Conmebol try to do the filters but the state authorities didn’t allow it. Facts.
Game was not delayed for 82 minutes bc fans rushed the gates. It’s was delayed bc fans were hurtled like cattle. Delayed bc organizers had no business organizing this event. More checkpoints farther from the stadium would have solved a lot of this
Makes the argument that Messi is an old man feasting on weak MLS competition a little less convincing.
💯
@@EniyanValentine Do you need buckets to contain your wailing tears?
Wrong. He proved he is not at the level required
@@ortforshort7652 he is an old man in football terms now but he’s earn’t the right to wind down the clock in Miami. I’d be surprised if we see him in an Argie shirt anymore and i dare say, he’ll play this and next season with Miami and that will be it. The man owes the game nothing, it owes him!
@@nicolasrecupero3026 as a from the beginning Messi fan, you are right. I hope he see’s it first and it doesn’t see him. A great way to go out winning the Copa as captain but the team now know that they will be ok without him and Di Maria.
Messi wasn't the factor on this game, but he was a factor during the whole Tournament.
IN FOOTBALL ARGENTINA IS THE GOAT.
International quadruple..
Messi the G.O.A.T 🐐
Lalas comparing a football final with a Superbowl shows he doesn't understand football, lmao
You people (West) would have lectured and blamed other people if it happened there..😃 . we're familiar with your game. 🙏Learn to accept, you need that further 😂
In regards Shakira’s performance - I don’t think she should’ve perform period !!!! It went over a half time and it was not fair to players
Learn from Qatar 2022
It was not an event organized only by CONMEBOL, it was organized by USA and did not pay attention to the suggestions of CONMEBOL, anyone who goes to a FOOTBALL event in South America knows that there should be 5 safety rings and in this one there was only one. If the USA organizes the World Cup like this with these horrible fields that are useless to play on + how insecure the country is, it will end badly. And what about putting on a show at halftime? What was that? This is football, it does not need more emotion, it is a waste of time and undermines the players' performance.
All coaches think about replacements, due to wear and tear and areas; Scaloni plans the changes, before the game, to kill at the right moment. He is a great strategist!!
Para entender realmente el fútbol, hay que entender su folclore y todo lo que significa para cada cultura. Cuando dicen que Argentina se crece ante las adversidades... Es cierto, pero no termina sólo ahí. Abrazo de gol!
0:04 three substitutes, Paredes steals the ball, touches to Lo Celso who touches to Lautaro.
Using a small
stadium to host the final of one of the greatest sports in the world this was doomed from the beginning they should have used a bigger stadium and enclosed at least i noticed how the teams were pouring sweat that mean they needed to be hydrated constantly
USA can't manage 2026 wc like this 😮
CONMEBOL warned about it for a reason, it is the hosts fault for rejecting the suggestion to filter the attendees in 3 stages.
“Shakira character” have some more respect. Smh
NO OFFENSE BUT SUPERBOWL IS INSIGNIFICANT BESIDE WIN A WORLD CUP OR AMERICAN CUP FOOTBALL.
I don't know who he is and what he is talking about. It clearly seems that he doesn't know anything about football and every time he brings out super bowl. Football is way bigger and beyond any sport.
So Alexi is a pop music entertainment critic now? Stay in your lane for goodness sake. The real issue is extending the standard 15 minute FIFA designated half-time.
As a woman I didn’t notice any cellulite 😩 I was at a big watch party 400-500 people, we were all caught up in the performance we don’t notice the lighting on her body
He said that the lighting caused this effect. Fish scales, or cellulite, from bad lights.
ironically the 2 biggest issues with Copa crowds came with Colombia as the common denominator, look at that... i get it 3 finals in 100 yrs will do that to a small futbol country
Yeah, but stilll this was more Conmebol/USA's fault. They needed to put more controls for the fans before getting to stadium. If they had done that from the beginning there wouldn't have been any problems, no matter how excited the colombian fans were.
Small country? They have 50 million people.
@@CarlosRodriguez-vi5tf 💩 at football though
They have a population of 50 million. What?
Come out and deride Colombia openly in readable English! As for we being a small soccer country... why, we licked you 5-0 on your own turf, followed by 3-0 and 2-0 back then! Stats between Colombia and any powerhouse country over the last 35 years are good, balanced. We again stand in the FIFA top 10 and did so for over 25 years since the 1990, even top 5 for over 10 years. Get your bearings right and see you in September.
