Lol, sounds like an official proceeding. Unfortunately there will be a continuing debate that over time should fade. The Maradona vs Pele debate raged for decades (still does).
I played football I was a Ronaldo fan trying to imitate Ronaldo on the field Then in 2010 i saw messi for the first time It is impossible messi is a Genius Humain being can try to be like Ronaldo But Messi is not human The debate is built up by media for money, for the views When you know football you know that there is no debate The way he dribbles, the way he pass, the way he score No one does expect him

Brit here, not an Argentina fan but I'm a huge Messi fan. He's quite simply the best there has ever been. I really hope someone comes along who's better but it doesn't seem likely.
Messi is not hated. He is highly respected. The greatest player in the history of the game. I hate when my team face him but in general all football fans love greatness. The football in Europe is at a higher level than South America. Its why Messi played is full career in Europe. You would enjoy funny football chants in England. It would be a great reaction also Ronaldinho.
At the world cup majority of the world supported argentina just because messi lol i was in brazil and argentina even had a lot of supporters because of messi which is really rare. So no he's not hated outside of argentina 😂
And ironically, of all places, it was Argentinians that "hated" Messi. This began to change and by the time Copa America 2021 started Argentina was 100% behind him.
@@lperea21 that's also not true. I am argentinian and I tell you, the majority of the people always loved and supported Leo. The media was the problem, they were spreading lies and critizicing our players for years. Because that's what "sells" sports news.
So are you trying to say that Ronaldo doesnt provide assists and is merely a goalscorer? Don't forget Ronaldo has 268 assists and is 5th Highest assister of all time While Messi being no 1 in assists.
@@shaanrajput308 Ronaldo has 236 opta assists. Non opta are not official assists, which is the one you're using. Yes Ronaldo is high, but that is due to the amount of games played. He is top 5 active players right now, but based on his ratio, he won't last there for long since there are people with 300 - 400 games less with almost the same amount.
To go with that Kobe reference, Messi has the most Assists in the history of football, he passes as much if not as much as he scores, one of the 10+ reasons which qualifies him as the greatest to ever live.
Brit here (from Wales) and i have to say i love Messi, hes the guy who got me inyo football ⚽🐐❤️ Personally i think there is no comparison to Ronaldo - Messi is just on another level as good as Ronaldo is. Although the debate was well and truly over after the world cup. I would recommend you check out Ronaldinho footballs greatest entertainment 😊 Also Messi Vs Physics - absolutely unreal ❤
Ì've never seen one player who could dribble past the whole team CONSISTENTLY, who is not only the best dribbler to ever live, but also one of the best passers (evidenced by the # of assists and video of video game-like passes), AND the best finisher to ever live.
15:23 his second touch releases the ball at a new velocity. By the time the defender realized it he had already slowed down to engage. You can see it in his face when he realizes that he needs to speed up not slow down
Yeah you are right, the thig touch told the defender the ball will slow down, but he didn't count on Messi not letting it touch the floor and restoring its speed, at which point Messi accelerates again and the defender is wrong footed and realises he lost a step, and Messi shoots like 1 second later, so he was nowhere near blocking that.
@@amacuro it's so subtle, but that is one example of how he makes it look so easy. These little tricks don't get as much attention as step overs, but man I keep watching them over and over because of how amazing it is
@@amacuro in case you are interested: there is another one in Holland game in WC 2022. Messi's assist: look at the defender covering Messi... He is trying to cover Messi by staying between the ball and the goal as Messi moves across the goal (even though they are a bit far from the goal). But then he suddenly changes course towards his own goal (looks strange because Messi didn't change course). This is the first part, Messi body feign did this, very subtle. Realizing that that's not where Messi was going he corrects course but by the time he just reaches Messi (who appears to get ready to kick) he raises his foot to block. Except the target was not going to be the goal, this is the second part, Messi was actually looking for the assist. So he nutmegs the defender for the assist... 🤯🤯🤯
Messi is loved around the world Im an Argentina fan from days of Diego Armando Maradona (D10s or the God) who Messi was compared to. You need react "15 Times Messi did the Impossible "
"Hes like kobe, he should pass it more" Well the difference between him and kobe is that messi is arguably the greatest passer and playmaker of all time. He passes a lot and creates opportunities out of thin air. You just dont see it in this video because it only shows goals.
Funny thing is from this video it seems like messi does not pass the ball. But messi actually has the highest assist in football. He is one of the greatest playmakers/passers of all time if not the best. He is a jack of all trades
Actually, this is a compilation of goals. But Messi is known too has one of the best (if not the best) passers, he is the player with most assist in the history of the game.
That's an irony in itself because messi had the ability to do it himself so he shouldn't even care about the team but that's why he's superhuman because he still cares about the team. While ronaldo who didn't have such natural ability should have cared for team more but cared only for his own glory.
I´m from Argentina, and of course I love Messi. You should watch "Messi no se tira". Messi doesn´t fall, other players go to the ground to get a yellow card to the oponent, but he ... whatever happens, goes on. still messi... still messi jajaja
Messi has the most liked instagram picture of all time & that should answer if he has supporters outside of Argentina. Bro I'm from Sri Lanka and there were people crying on the streets when he won. Did you all not see the crazy celebrations from Bangladesh fans supporting and celebrating his win. Even in Barcalona people stepped to the streets to support his victory. Just Google and you will find all about this. Plus Ronaldo is out of the conversation. The Goat debate is finished & Messi winning the world cup sealed the Goat status.
Well, Barcelona has adored Messi for close to 20 years for what he's done to make "Barça" a brand that's recognized worldwide, and don't forget, there's an Argentinian migrant colony of close to 200,000 living in Barcelona...
*NOBODY* "hates" Lionel Messi. *...AND YES, FANS AROUND THE WORLD LOVE LIONEL MESSI!* We appreciate his phenomenal skills; and the decisive parts/roles he plays.

Imagine doing batshit crazy things in the pitch and then scoring ALL ALONE but at the same time be one of if not the greatest playmaker the game has ever seen whilst having the highest assists in the history of football 💀💀💀 basically messi not scoring could still be the best player on the pitch😭
You guys seem very knowledgeable sports guys. Let me tell you few more things about Messi.. despite how he might seem in those few clips that he doesn't pass that much and takes on players by himself, those are only some highlights. Mindblowingly, he is the first and foremost a playmaker, top 2 playmaker in history of the game (with Maradona) in the final third of the pitch, meaning that he is one of the best at finding the right action in the right moment. his vision, creativity and decision making of passing is second to none. On top of that he has this magical ability to dribble by himself if necessary (which is demonstrated by few of those highlights). So he is one of the deadliest finishers in history of the game (his left foot is insane. The most out of the penalty box goals in modern football), at his peak he was insanely quick and agile with ball control second to none and he is great, creative passer who has supreme football IQ. It is combination of those 3 areas of the game (scoring, ball control and passing) that separates him from anyone else in history. There has never been anyone that has combined such excellence in all 3 areas of the game.. (maybe only Pele who played 60 years ago).
I'm not from Argentina and messi is my fav player,who don't know players from Argentina one of the greatest is from Argentina the one and only Maradona
Some of the things you guys say are so ludicrous that they need setting straight. 1. Right off the bat, the guy in the Yankees outfit says that "Anyone that's not from Argentina hates Messi". That opinion can only be understood by the fact that he's been married to a Mexican for 15 years. The ONLY people who hate Messi are: (a) Real Madrid fans (who suffered humiliating defeats at Messi's hands for over 15 years), (b) Ronaldo fans (frustration and jealous of being overshadowed by the GOAT in all facets of the game except for heading and taking penalty kicks), (c) Mexicans who think they're equals with a world soccer powerhouse like Argentina despite losing to them for decades and never even coming close to winning a major international trophy like the World Cup or Copa América, and (4) Argentinians who revere Maradona and can't stand others comparing him (mostly unfavorably) to Messi. The difference between Messi and Maradona is that Messi is Maradona EVERY DAY, while the genius Maradona only showed up sporadically (like once every 10 or 12 games). 2. Yankee fan says Cristiano Ronaldo has better ball control than Messi. SERIOUSLY??? 3. 7:02 "the conversation right now is him or Ronaldo". The "conversation" has always been stoked by Ronaldo fanboys who, against all the unbiased evidence (just check the stats), hate that Ronaldo can't touch Messi with a 10-foot pole. This artificial conversation ended for good on December 18, 2022, when Messi lifted the World Cup, a trophy Ronaldo can't even dream of winning. 4. 13:40 They're not speaking Spanish, the announcer is speaking in Catalan. "Encara Messi" means "still Messi", the announcer is getting more and more excited and flipping out bcs he's still got the ball as he weaves through the entire opposing team. The announcer is also doing a play on words with the Catalan expression "encara més" ("even more", or "still more"). How do I know? I speak Catalan, lived in Barcelona 35 years, watched the game on Catalan TV with this announcer, Joaquim Maria Puyal... 5. 14:52 The teams were FC Barcelona (blue&burgundy) against Atletic de Bilbao (red&white), playing the final of the King's Cup (Copa del Rey).
I agree with absolutely everything you said. It is exact. But go easy on them. Our beautiful game is about number 6 or 7 on their list of national sports and they are showing an interest. He certainly knows more about my football than I know about his lol.
Messi is one of the most celebrated players in the world, whoever told you everybody hates him lied to you. Ask anyone who actually watches football. Granted... I am argentinian, but I do have friends all over the world and even if most people hate argentinians, they overlook that with Messi and just love him. Ask around.
Messi is the most loved man outside of Argentina , I'm not saying that he is not hated , but there are players on this level , like CR7 , Ronaldinho , Ney , Ronaldo 9 , that if you love the game , you love those players , even if they are not from your country .
You need to see the video about why Messi is the GOAT and the documentary of Messi in the world cup. I love to see americans starting to learn about football and about the legendary players, so keep the content comming and you'll find a lot of people loving it
I’ve never met any football fan in the whole of England that hates Messi and we are Argentina’s biggest rivals after Brazil. Everyone here loves Messi because he is a football God but also very humble. I wonder if the guy on the right talks in his sleep lol.
Americans a ot of time complain that Football is boring, not enough goals. Well we Europeans also don't like 0-0 score lines, that's why when Messi played the whole tuned in. It was a privilege to see whole career of Ronaldinho and Messi.
13:40 in fact, he is speaking Catalan language, not spanish. Speaker said a lot of times "still, Messi, still Messi, STILL MESSI" and other things like he literally got the ball in the midfield, and ALONE 1 vs 11 scored. He said in his entire carrier he didn't see something like that...
this video is not bad but it does not show messi as it should, he is spectacular in passing\assists and making opportunities as he in scoring, dribbling and shooting
KB was the biggest fan of Leo Messi. Gonna edit this comment soon with the vid. Edit: ruclips.net/video/KXElWzKvHO0/видео.html Turn on the subtitles bros.
Messi has only played for two clubs Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. At Barcelona he had a $500 million release clause to buy him. That means you had to pay $500 million first then a transfer fee too which could have been $200 million plus the release clause $700 million to get Messi, then pay his wages of 1 million per week. PSG got him for free as Messi was out of contract, but they paid him $1 million a week wages. Messi has to be the best player ever, Ronaldo a close second.
good video and analysis. The only thing you didn't realize was that in the last goal shown in the video, he kicked with his right leg and that is his less skillful leg (he is left-handed to kick but on the right he has 50% of the ability he has with his left foot).
I don't know where you get that everyone hates Messi... The guy is one of the most loved person in the world, there is a huge portion of the football world that hates him, because he played for the rival club of the biggest club in the world(Real Madrid), but other than them he is very well liked
Explain Lionel Messi and the other footballing "Greats". The Greats do things on a football pitch a million times better than normal people. Messi does things that the Greats don't do, didn't do, can't do, and don't even think of doing. Messi is a level above. He must see the game in slow-motion.
Bro Messi is maybe the most universally loved athlete, idk where you’re getting that everyone outside of Argentina hates him. And the conversation isn’t Messi vs Ronaldo anymore. Anyone that still thinks that Ronaldo is on Messi’s level is in denial.
The conversation surrounding Messi or Ronaldo is now closed and Messi closed it in Qatar. It was never really an argument anyway. He has always been streets ahead.
Preach!

3. 7:02 "the conversation right now is him or Ronaldo". The "conversation" has always been stoked by Ronaldo fanboys who, against all the unbiased evidence (just check the stats), hate that Ronaldo can't touch Messi with a 10-foot pole. This artificial conversation ended for good on December 18, 2022, when Messi lifted the World Cup, a trophy Ronaldo can't even dream of winning.
4. 13:40 They're not speaking Spanish, the announcer is speaking in Catalan. "Encara Messi" means "still Messi", the announcer is getting more and more excited and flipping out bcs he's still got the ball as he weaves through the entire opposing team. The announcer is also doing a play on words with the Catalan expression "encara més" ("even more", or "still more"). How do I know? I speak Catalan, lived in Barcelona 35 years, watched the game on Catalan TV with this announcer, Joaquim Maria Puyal...
5. 14:52 The teams were FC Barcelona (blue&burgundy) against Atletic de Bilbao (red&white), playing the final of the King's Cup (Copa del Rey).
I agree with absolutely everything you said. It is exact. But go easy on them. Our beautiful game is about number 6 or 7 on their list of national sports and they are showing an interest. He certainly knows more about my football than I know about his lol.
bro wrote an essay
@@vm8886 I thought I was pretty succinct hahahaha
The next World Cup is split between USA, Canada and Mexico!! 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇲🇽…you’ll be able to experience it in 2026!
Bro said he should pass more to the person who has The most assists in football history💀
👆🐐👆🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
The GOAT of football
What u dont know is that he arguably is the greatest passer of the ball😊
Arguably? No hr is the greatest passer also👍🏻
@@wizard7815
I agree with u there
14:50 - I think the team in red and white stripes was Athletic Bilbao.
You’re right that’s bilbao in the 2015 CDR final
Messi Is the goat Maradona & Messi
The goal in minute 14 of the video has been studied by scientists. Everything was done to perfection... A single degree off and the ball was out.
Fun fact, the next World Cup is in the USA , Canada and Mexico in 2026, so better get those tickets booked
Messi is one of the most celebrated players in the world, whoever told you everybody hates him lied to you. Ask anyone who actually watches football. Granted... I am argentinian, but I do have friends all over the world and even if most people hate argentinians, they overlook that with Messi and just love him. Ask around.
Messi is the most loved man outside of Argentina , I'm not saying that he is not hated , but there are players on this level , like CR7 , Ronaldinho , Ney , Ronaldo 9 , that if you love the game , you love those players , even if they are not from your country .
ik u dont know much about football but messi has the most assist in all of football hes just a goal scoring and assist machine
Stats? Messi
Eye test? Messi
Accolades? Messi
Pure talent? Messi. I rest my case
the GOAT
I agree with the comment that Messi is not hated
He is far,far better than Ronaldo
Ronaldo only just gets into top 20 ever players Messi in top 3
You need to see the video about why Messi is the GOAT and the documentary of Messi in the world cup. I love to see americans starting to learn about football and about the legendary players, so keep the content comming and you'll find a lot of people loving it
I’ve never met any football fan in the whole of England that hates Messi and we are Argentina’s biggest rivals after Brazil. Everyone here loves Messi because he is a football God but also very humble. I wonder if the guy on the right talks in his sleep lol.
When you asked "what language are they speaking"?...it was catalán, which is spoken in Catalunya, where Barcelona is.
He's too good to be true, that's why haters said it's scripted. Messi the GOAT 🐐
He isn't hated at all. Check out more of his gameplay. Messi vs. Physics or The World's Greatest.
Messi is the most beloved person in the world
Messi just singel new contract with Inter Miami 😉
The BEST to ever do it
One goat one king mess7 !
Y'all should definitely do a reaction to Ronaldinho, "Ronaldinho football's greatest entertainment" is a great video on him
He does pass it more by the way he has the most assists in the history of football
Americans a ot of time complain that Football is boring, not enough goals.
Well we Europeans also don't like 0-0 score lines, that's why when Messi played the whole tuned in.
It was a privilege to see whole career of Ronaldinho and Messi.
“Anyone outside Argentina hates Messi”
Wrong. Messi is loved and admired by every and any football fan. It’s quite simple.
13:40 in fact, he is speaking Catalan language, not spanish. Speaker said a lot of times "still, Messi, still Messi, STILL MESSI" and other things like he literally got the ball in the midfield, and ALONE 1 vs 11 scored. He said in his entire carrier he didn't see something like that...
Messi ❤❤
15:01 Every time i see a wide receiver drop a easy pass i remember this goal against Nigeria.
this video is not bad but it does not show messi as it should, he is spectacular in passing\assists and making opportunities as he in scoring, dribbling and shooting
In one season I think he scored about 96 goals in all competitions and broke a record
Messiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii👑🐐
There is NO "conversation" Messi IS the GOAT.
At same time is rhe best play maker ever.
Messi the 👽🐐
he also best game player ever
how do you think messi have 470m followers on ig pure argentinas
?
12':40" ... Barcelona 5 vs. Getafe 2, Semifinal Copa del Rey 2007, the speaker is Catalan.
KB was the biggest fan of Leo Messi. Gonna edit this comment soon with the vid.
Edit:

Turn on the subtitles bros.
Messi has only played for two clubs Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. At Barcelona he had a $500 million release clause to buy him. That means you had to pay $500 million first then a transfer fee too which could have been $200 million plus the release clause $700 million to get Messi, then pay his wages of 1 million per week. PSG got him for free as Messi was out of contract, but they paid him $1 million a week wages. Messi has to be the best player ever, Ronaldo a close second.
Goat ❤
Neymar isn't the only diver. Almost all players dive, Neymar just makes it look more dramatic
good video and analysis. The only thing you didn't realize was that in the last goal shown in the video, he kicked with his right leg and that is his less skillful leg (he is left-handed to kick but on the right he has 50% of the ability he has with his left foot).
I don't know where you get that everyone hates Messi... The guy is one of the most loved person in the world, there is a huge portion of the football world that hates him, because he played for the rival club of the biggest club in the world(Real Madrid), but other than them he is very well liked
I dont know who told you that but Messi is not hated at all. If you dont count Ronaldo fanboys ofc.
Explain Lionel Messi and the other footballing "Greats".
The Greats do things on a football pitch a million times better than normal people.
Messi does things that the Greats don't do, didn't do, can't do, and don't even think of doing.
Messi is a level above.
He must see the game in slow-motion.
Bro Messi is maybe the most universally loved athlete, idk where you’re getting that everyone outside of Argentina hates him.
And the conversation isn’t Messi vs Ronaldo anymore. Anyone that still thinks that Ronaldo is on Messi’s level is in denial.
The Abso-F%cking-lute GOAT
The conversation isn't between him and Ronaldo...it's between him, Maradona, and Pele.
14:17 he said he should pass more little does he know messi has the most assists ever
