I don’t know if Messi was 100 percent for this match. What I do know is that Martino put him on the right wing today, and did so with the full knowledge (Messi had to know it too) that he wouldn’t have his usual influence on the match, that all eyes and cameras wouldn’t be on him, even as the eyes of all of the RM defenders would be.
That the best player alive and his coach decided upon that notion is staggering. Further, in making that decision to put him on the right, it was clear that it would open up the pitch for others, who were going to have to step up to take their opportunity. The match was going to be on them rather than Messi, and the star’s recent injuries had prepared this club for precisely this day.
And Messi worked. Like a dog. He ran, feinted, maintained tactical width, made passes and put the hell out in a way that had me thinking about the last time he looked that bedraggled, late in a match. It was awesome, and the ultimate proof that whatever anyone says about that man, he is a team player who just wants to win matches. He wasn’t anywhere near the best player on the pitch today, but he was one of the most influential.
It’s also another sign that our beloved club has come of age in the hands of its pragmatic leader, when it can take on an opponent that many people who know the game had us losing to, and win.
Па тоа ни е заштитен знак, пола од головите против Реал ги примаме после аут и ни ја земаат топкатаИ да не ми е јасно кој кур на 2:0 сите напред и ги фати Роналдо на контра за 2:1. Кога имаш резултат не може да ти се деси тоа
