Messi might have forgot to bring his finishing boots but he still had his magic boots on 🪄✨ 🇦🇷🐐
😂 yea he did but he still is the best player on the pitch
@@JB-nj2wrPessi is done 😅

@@Ferna3kdone perfect after the world cup. Nothing more to prove 👌
When Messi doesn’t have a scoring masterclass, he has a playmaking masterclass! GOAT things🐐🪄
He completely failed in attack that game but still set up both goals lol
Funny because in the Portugal video, Messi fans are saying that Ronaldo assisting is a sign that he's finished. Meanwhile here those same fans are raving about it when Messi does it.
Ale not being in the office I dont think I never saw it
It felt weird first
5:22 As an argentinean this was a big issue for me. It was clearly evident by the lack of singing, drums and trumpets that most people with an argentinean tshirt were in fact, not argentinean at all, and just USA tourists.
I mean, I don't have absolutely anything against people just wanting to see an elite player before he retires even though they're not big fans of the team, I would've done the same If I had a chance to see Michael Jordan play live, even though I haven't watched a single bulls game in my life.
But, when the audience it's mostly "tourists", it kind of ruins the atmosphere of a true football game, which is counter productive also, because those tourists will have less interest in the sport as a whole, since they don't have "the energy" of a true match.
Definitivamente no la viven como nosotros, un dia se ponen la de Messi y al otro dia se ponen cualquier otra xD
Encima son estrictos con los asientos y no dejan que los hinchas se cambien de lugar, así que estamos esparcidos por toda la cancha y es imposible alentar ;(
Argentinians are broke rn 😂
Then don't watch it
@@pablodebella7695 Seeing the South American giant federation teams play has been very underwhelming so far
Canada's keeper stopped 3-4 1v1 chances and didn't get a mention.....
Crepeau was phenomenal and should absolutely warrant consideration from Euro clubs
The team barely try to assist Álvarez and then Lautaro come in and they assist him like crazy
It was more about the defensive style of Canada, when Álvarez was playing they were sitting behind in a low block not pressing until Argentina reached half court. When Lautaro entered the game Canada was pressing high on the pitch, and of course Argentina really got the best out of them once they sorted out the pressing and scored the second goal.
Canada played well
You can play well and also lose the match!!
@@adeleyemathew2112 lose
@@adeleyemathew2112thats the beauty of football
I was sad for Messi.He used to mow down defenders in a row and make them look like fools and finally even score the goal. This was one on one.... I am sad that he is getting older. But the consolation is that pass. So simple, yet elegant and small... His footballing mind is still intact and thats enough.
His passing is still the best in the World.
He still got a rating of 8/10.
People miss one on ones at their peak too
@@MMehdi-he4uo YES!!!!
@@MMehdi-he4uo yeah can t forget his easy chance agaisnt neur!!
Scoring only goals doesn't make you GOAT but what magic you produce on pitch makes you magician, a genius
I was there Canada played well
@espn fc how come no one is talking about Argentina on why didn’t get fined for coming out to the pitch past the regular time ? Isn’t that being disrespectful to the opponent, the game , and fans? RULES are RULES, it should be applied to everybody. And if it was Canada, do you think they would had been treated the same as the ref treated the CANADIAN TEAM
Canda´s tactic with the high pressure was a good one, but they didnt execute it well, at times Argentina struggled to come out playing from their field but then Argentina could have scored at least 4 goals from long passes behind Canada´s defense. This could have easily ended 6-0 or if Im being generous 6-2, the 2-0 makes it look closer than it really is, and this is exactly what happened in the World Cup, watch those Argentina games again where they won 2-0, 2-1 and in reality those were games that could have easily ended with 3 or 4 more goals in favor of Argentina, they create a LOT of chances but also they miss a lot of those chances incredibly in situations where its normally a goal.
At least we still have fans with football knowledge around,i always said it myself,Argentina could and should at least win 3 or 4 goals the least in WC against all who they played
Even the games against Netherlands and France should’ve never gone to penalties. They were totally dominating
@@user-xt9sh5kz2x thank you we dominated,Lautaro was one missing chances
Personally that kick to Alvarez early in the game to his hand and wrist. I think affected his play. Ya it’s a part you don’t use for football but if you’re in pain and you need to try and focus. It gets difficult to play aggressive at times. I saw that. Alvarez is great. I like him. But hopefully he gets some more starts and grow into the game more. Happy that he scored. Good confidence booster.
The "controversy" of this game wasn't the playing surface, which was the same for both teams, it was Argentina taking 5--7 minutes to come out late to start the 2nd half so that they could spend more time analyzing the video to work out a plan to how to counteract what Canada was doing against them, which even Messi admitted wasn't what they were used to or expecting. And Argentina still needed some further help from the Refs for not calling blatant fouls committed by their players on the edge of their own box. Please do better next time ESPN
biased
based*
No team is going to roll over and die because of a bigger team. They come to compete.
What? every Argentina was happy, beautiful football plays, those guy didnt watch the match!!!! Argentina controlled the game. Canada had a few good moments and played with courage, but Argentina dominated, successful one-touch passes, transitions. Canada in the second half played to press and thought that Argentina would be passive, to Canada surprise Argentina pressed also well and way effective. Argentina only had 10 minutes in the entire game where Canada attacked from Acuña side that complicated Argentina's creation just for 10 minutes, but Argentina were a bulldozer. amazing, everybody so connected. Btw Even Canada complained, the ball so difficult to bounce.
They looked brilliant. Can’t believe Messi and Di Maria - they both still have pace. The quality they have is always going to be there but they don’t seem to be slowing down - amazing.
That Saudi Arabia offside trap/high press was very very good , basically perfect
Good point from Jaime re: the crowd. Went to see Inter Miami when they visited Tokyo and was not prepared for the weird atmosphere around Messi. Admittedly it was a friendly but I’ve never been to a match before where all anyone cared about was just saying that they’ve seen one certain player. Feels a bit strange, as a real soccer fan. Stadium full of people cosplaying as Argentina fans. You don’t get that kinda thing at the Euros.
To be honest, it does feel weird watching your country's colors being used as a prop, or a piece of merchandise if you will. To us, la albiceleste is iconic, culturally cherished. But I guess it's ok as long as there's no Ill will
@@furbymetal83 Yeah man I can imagine it's a bit odd...especially as the feeling was very different when say...Maradona played (can't imagine people from all over the world donning Argentina or Maradona jerseys back then!). I think Americans in particular (and people from countries with weak teams that will never make the World Cup) feel more okay "identifying" with other countries. Might be something to do with the celebrity culture in North America too...people tend to get on bandwagons more...rather than sticking with their team through thick and thin. I'm from Canada and we're the same...as we would always cheer for other countries in the World Cup (usually a distant ancestor's...) because Canada never used to make it. I was definitely cheering against Argentina and Messi yesterday (to no avail)! Hopefully we can get past Peru and Chile.
@@furbymetal83 I mean it was the same thing with Pele, a bunch of clingers who have a hero fetish would wear Brazil shirts.
@@trevorkew6097we will beat 🇨🇱 & 🇵🇪 mate!! 😉
If i had a Dollar for everytime Ale says Lionel Messi in this, i'd happily retire and go live on a farm...
This guy is obsessed
European countries can't play on such turf one has to be technically superb on these pitches
South American teams are different brids
This one could have ended in a 5-2 but it ended up being 2-0
Fun game, bad pitch, and big misses.
Canada's problem is scoring, that is nothing new. But their offside trap also needs work.
What does Garnacho need to do to get some minutes in this team?
No, el problema de Canadá es que tiene jugadores africanos en su equipo, ellos solo juegan por dinero.
@@robertoraularias4306 Racism is a cancer to the human race and a blight on the otherwise great Argentinian supporters. I hope you realise that.
@@robertoraularias4306🤣👉🏿
Every Argentinean was surprised but happy for Canada showing such great quality.
Speaking of the "Messi effect" with the fans only there to see him. Didn't the US already try that with Pele and the NASL? There were HUGE crowds to see the New York Cosmos, and the rest of the games no one went at all...
The mighty Canada!
The officiating was really one sided, makes a mockery out of the match, how disappointing, World Cup had it especially in the final.
Canada is just a bunch of kids with athleticism.. Argentina taught them how to really play football with Technicalities and Tactical play
How so ? Canada was not outplayed
True
@@lexkanyima2195 they got 2 chances as opposed to Argentinas 9. They held 35 percent possesion as Argentina had 65.
Football requires athleticism, technique and tactics. The hypocrite Xavi preached this technique nonsense then made the most physical side possible to win the league
@@lexkanyima2195 lol dude which match did you watch? this could have easily ended 6-0 or 6-2 if Im being generous, argentina missed at least 4 one on ones that are usually easy goals, credit to the goalkeeper but Canada got completely outplayed specially in the 2nd half when the high pressure was countered by long precise passes.
I really don’t think Argentina took them that seriously
You don’t see Messi not getting involved and missing 1 on 1s regularly
Absolutely.. Argentina was teaching them how to play football.. Canada just have athleticism
@Triple_X_X it is a fluke victory
@@lexkanyima2195 WAAAH WAAAH WAAAAH 🥺😢
So France and Argentina didn't take them serious? Lol lame excuses.
@@Triple_X_Xdumb comment
Vamos Argentina 🇦🇷
Hey, so called pundit's please donot exaggerate stuffs it's just a openner. argentina get back into their form as they go deep into the tournament
that first half was painful msn
Dan is so savage 😂
Argentina weren’t at their brilliant best against Canada yesterday as they could’ve been better particularly in front of goal where they created so many chances, at the end of the day, they just get the job done and that’s what matters. They got the 3 points and they can move on from the next game. They didn’t need to be at their best, there was some passages of play where they moved the ball very well and were on the front foot the entire game and looked threatening to score every time they were in attack and thankfully they managed to do so and on any given day, they could be on the pitch for 2 hours straight and would be missing chances for fun.
If they played against better teams like Brazil Uruguay and Colombia and they were wasteful in front of goal, other teams are capable of punishing them, they’re happy that they’re a much better team than Canada who had decent opportunities themselves and made sure that they didn’t concede. It’s the start of a new tournament meaning that what happened in the past has to be left behind, given the fact that they’ve been the most successful team in international football in the last 4 years and they’ve shown no signs of slowing down since winning the World Cup and are managing to still win games even without always playing well, Argentina are unanimous favorites to win the Copa America and while I won’t rule out other teams in this competition, they’re a level above everyone else in South America right now and they can start tournaments off slow and manage to pick it up later on.
Magician as it's best
The ref was real bad
How come they don’t bash Messi the way they bash Ronaldo he missed two one on ones ESPN is a joke
Messi effect so true. But competition in soccer makes everyone level up.. at least that's how I remember when I played after school.
Why does espn fc have Eddie Brock from Spiderman 3?
I'm missing the argentine bands and drummers like they had in the worldcup. take the feel of the game to another level.
If this was in Qatar world cup Argentina would have completely dominated Canada
This is a different altitude
100 years later, Argentina lose a game and people say they would have won if it was in Qatar.
@@lexkanyima2195 Argentina would have been more passionate for the game
@@patricklopez-mikovich5717 how so ?
yes.. cuz Messi would have been 2 years younger and he would have mowed them down
Canada was really lucky that Argentina didn't take their chances.Or else this would have a 5-0 win in Argentina's favor.
Argentina was really lucky we didnt score on our chances which would have changed the complexion as we would have hung back in a low block and not had to continue to expose ourselves from playing a high line. Not about "what ifs"
@@jaytse2269They weren't lucky. No matter what scenario you can come up with they have the players and the coach to win. You still need to be good at defending to do a low block and Canada isn't. You need to be good at srt pieces and Canada isn't. The gamble the coach made was the right one because the only thing Canada has is some athleticism.
Shame that it wasn’t held in South America…
Lauti off the bench gives this team a whole different set up than Alvarez when he comes on. If the manager’s first tactic doesn’t work the 2nd will. They’re going to win this tournament again.
Messi missed 3 open chances he’s dead 😂🤣
😢
so dead that he created the 2 Argentina goals....🤡
Messi' downfall is a good player s peak
@@biswadevmajhi231 huh??? 🤔
This kind of comments are exactly as they were after Saudi Arab game in Qatar. It is the opportunity to early show up and discover the fools. Hahaha. Only these ones are missing by chanting "where is Messi?" 😂😂😂
Messi was excellent if he doesn't score he creates chances
But the goal materialists don't see that.
I think the question is, should Messi be starting ? Is Messie slowing down the team? I think these are serious questions in this tournament.
Lmaoooo let’s all laugh at this dude
Well deserved win to kick off their Copa America. Could have looked much better nevertheless good professional display. Haters will keep hating, I don’t think anyone really cares.
We miss you ale 😅😅😂
Maybe, Canada is just a good team.
The Argentina fans ,are so calm ,was a easy match,Argentina is huge ,nota problem whith small teams.
DiMaria couldn’t hit the side of a barn
The guy accomplished everything in football, to say such a thing shows you’re just here for engagement farming.
Don't disrespect Angel. He shows up when he's needed the most, and he's already reached legendary status.
Where is the video should argentina coach should drop messi in next matches after 3 missing 1v1 chances
Without Messi it would have been 0-0
Argentina blaming the grass for their bad performance is laughable. I watched the game..the ball played just like it would have in any other natural grass setting.
Oh you watched the game ? Great . Maybe play the game as well someday. Turf vs grass is different, Argentina won. They are calling it as it played.
Blaming or not ,who win the game,the grass was done a few days before the game and was like loose
I like how there's no mention of Argentina breaking.rules by delaying the halftime start to obviously review footage and alter tactics. But blaiming turf that impacts both teams gets acknowlegded
One reason to follow this football channel is messi, hoping someone will talk something about messi
Yeah. Messi messes with the media.
Leo Messi
Arrrhentinah did get in behind, many, many,.....😅😅😅
Messi is the best
Messi just didn't wanna embarrass Ronaldo by scoring a Hat-trick so he decided to miss them and just give an assist..he didn't want Ronaldo to cry on the social media with his burner account
Still far behind on hattricks and playing in a much easier tournament that CR7 is playing in. Just saying. 🥱🤧🤷♂️🤷♂️
@@ozoneA6Unlike Ronaldo,Messi is not infatuated by personal records and accolades.Messi is more of a team-player and would prefer to share the goals around,as opposed to chasing records.Numerous times,Messi had ample opportunities to secure a hattrick and he would choose to hand over a penalty.Imagine if he didn’t,his hattrick would’ve either been on par or surpassed Ronaldo’s tally by now😂😂😂😂
@@ozoneA6 what easier tournament?? 😂 Euros is harder?? Only Spain and Germany are doing something..the rest are average 😂
@@joegrinefine CR7 dont chase records. It chases him. Save your story book. Watch the Euros and you would see the back heel assist for vitinha that was almost a goal. See how he tried to share the ball more instead of scoring. If he-s so selfish, how come he is in the top 8 for most assist? Idiot and delusional bad!
@@ozoneA6fun fact there have been 27 times when Messi had the opportunity for a hattrick but gave away a penalty remaining with a brace
Hahaha hahaha hahaha hahaha ESPN and Messi
cmon ronaldo 🐐
Go away ESPN. Like really. Go away. Go and do it yourself. Ahhh your wasted pundits... soryyy😂
For all the way ale talks… them stats are absolutely horrendous
He was not a great player, but he doesn’t take himself too seriously most of the time
Wdym by how he talks?he's never said anything remotely close to insinuate that he was world class. If u don't like him.then that's fine, but don't make up.scenarios in ur head
!SarojK94: what? 😳
USA PITICHES SUCKS IN CRICKET WORLDCUP NOW IN Copa America. Not good for USA.
"Made win"..?? Any chance you would consider learning english before posting next time..??
🔥
Canada will always lose to Argentina. 😂😂😂😂
I wouldn't assume that. 5 years ago we couldn't beat St Kits and Nevis. Thats like Argentina starting to support hockey 5 years ago, would you expect them to beat us in hockey now? Look at basketball. Argentina would beat us easily 15 years ago. Now we beat Argentina easily without our best NBA talent. Let's see how this develops, we simply have bigger, better athletes in general. If we can fine tune skills,tactics. Could be different in another 5 years or so.
@@jaytse2269 😂😂😂😂 obviously you have no clue about soccer. It’s not about putting black people with strong stamina. It’s about the gen 🧬 which Canada doesn’t have. I’m not saying that you’re never gonna beat us because in sports nothing is a death certainty but not today. You guys are far behind us and if it wasn’t for the field Canada would’ve lost 5-0
Going to the mls has detoriated messi
The chances he missed he would buried 10 out 10 about 1 yr ago
I think now its time to retire
Did you see the match, how many chances he created
NO, it is not. Noobs have been retiring Messi for the last 5 yrs. Leave him alone. He got an 8 out of 10 rating. What do you know.
Messi is done, bro need to retire asap!
Dude. The tournament just started. Don’t write him off just yet. Didn’t you learn anything from Qatar 2022?
He created chances so what your problem, Argentina is winning that's what matter
@@evansbezil7450 when they handed him a trophy 🏆 I remember
Messi was too slow to react in 1-1 chances, do not blame the grass mates. Messi should retire after this Copa, he has lost too much pace to compete against real teams
No digas pavadas. Aprovecharon para señalar la cancha ya que habían ganado y nadie nos podía reprochar nada. todos los jugadores y el técnico reportaron la cancha. somo lo absoluto ganadores, tendremos algo que decir verdad.
Messi can play until he is 40
👍👍👍
Messi goat 🐐
Canada will always lose to Argentina 😂😂😂😂
Ale is a clown
Leone pessi 😂😂😂
Cry pendu
Argentina were thoroughly unimpressive without a little favouritism from the refs. As i predicted, but I imagine people will still claim that the last world cup wasn't fixed.
Did the referee help them score?did the ref prevent Canada from taking their chances enough with the BS how the World Cup was fix when the keeper save them last minute when France got 2 penalties
Stfu and grow up , Ronaldo lost the GOAT debate let it go
keep crying for the rest of your life about that 😂
This is new type of FLAT-EARTHERs in rise again. One question, do you believe Earth is flat as well?
Keep crying pendu fans
Messi aint the goat. Pele is the goat.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 overrated pele
Okay am okay with that if it's not Penaldo
Great player but played in a vastly inferior era to now. Not to mention, a simple eye test shows that as good as Pele was, Messi is clearly superior. He's so much more fluid as a dribbler, and has much more finesse with his shooting. And while Pele was a very good passer, Messi's vision is on another level.
Overrated pendu and pele
¿ No hay jugadores canadienses en Canadá, porque ponen africanos en el equipo? Así nunca van a ganar y el DT es un llorón, que vaya a una iglesia a llorar, argentina es 1.000.000 de veces superior
Canada is a country of immigrants and they came here in the right process which makes them Canadian
Canada es un país multicultural. Estos muchachos crecieron en Canadá.
How dare these clown 🤡 compare pessi 😂😂 to
Goat Cristiano same on fifa and journalists 😢
Because Messi has won World Cup and Ronaldo never scored a Goal in WC Knockout match
Pendu fan still crying
Leone pessi most overrated and useless player ever only need pens and fifa to win 😂😂😂
Said no intelligent person ever...
Cry pendu
imagine Ronaldo missed 2 open goals ...Pessi fc aka Espn fc would be all over him
Ronaldo missed 1 v 1 against Morocco but nobody mentioned it.
He missed a 1v1 the other day against Czechia and no one said anything.
Pain since wc22 I see
Pessi is finished he can't even score against canada 😂😂😂😂
Haters 😅
You fake Ronaldo!!!😂😂😂
Ronaldo fans still in pain since 2022. Hahahahah
Pendu fans still in pain
worst show
Messi doesn't do anything..he walks around the pitch until one of his mates passes him the ball. It's actually quite embarrassing to watch him play.
Doesn't do anything, apart from the fact he creates, opens up teams with his dribbling and still has the ability to score goals regularly... To say he does nothing is utterly ridiculous. As for off the ball, that's literally a tactic that goes back to the Guardiola era at Barca. Messi isn't expected to press or defend much when his team don't have possession, in order for him to be able to operate in short bursts and be a constant outlet in attack.
Messi doesn't do anything!!!! Tell me you don't know anything about football without telling me you don't know anything about football
CR 7 best in the world ❤
# pessi
Sham on you Messi if you cannot score those goals you are just any ordinary footballer, Referee is also favoring them by not issuing yellow cards on their challenges
Clown.
🤣👉🏿
Honestly Messi played average. Messi sure created chances but none of those chances were really anything spectacular. The goals were Messi alone to receive, look up and simple pass in the box. How simple it was says more about how bad Canadas defense was
U going to get headache u Ronaldo fan
Bad defence???.. 🇨🇦 defence was quite outstanding tbf , mate!! 🤔

Still salty since my guy has a WC and yours doesn’t ?😂 keep crying dude

It was a poor display from Argentina considering their standard. Defence need to be more unite and finishing need to be sharped
