He just won the world cup and about to win his 8th balon d'or.
Every head must bow,
Every toung must confess,
He is the greatest of all time.
I’m Argentinian and I’m very proud of our team all of them but for years I was waiting to see Leo win the World Cup , he his a very humble man and he deserves it , 35 five years old he fought hard for years to wing ,he is the 🐐 ❤🇦🇷
🤘🤘🤘
I was screaming at the tv here in Australia so much I scared my family and the neighbours 3 houses away. Even as an Australian, he means the world to me as a lifelong football player and fan from back in Maradona's time onwards.,
HE FINALLY DID IT . WHAT A GOAT
He is the best
Playmaker
Goals scorer
Dribbler
He is 3 in 1 🐐
He's the undisputed goat. Technical ability with the ball, vision and dribbling are his super powers and everything else follows. You gotta check out more he has sooo many magical moments
Fax 🐐✨
Is Messi won of the best ever? Yes. But Messi is not the goat. Has never been and will never be. Messi, just won his first world cup. Pele won 3 world cups and his first at 17 years of age. Even Maradona was better than Messi.
@@Miblive winning 1 world cup didn't make messi the greatest. Winning the world cup on top of what he achieved and what he showed consistently on the pitch for 20 years makes him the greatest.
@@Miblive Pele play in mediocre league all his career against semi amateurs. Many players in those league during Pele times was doing football as a side job . They didn't even have yellow/red card and offsides rules yet ffs.
And no, Pele didn't win WC 3 times. Brazil win WC 3 times in his time. In case you didn't know, there's 10 more players in Brazil team 😁
Well said👏
The most complete player of all time without a shadow of a doubt 🐐👑
And Yet still humble, which resonates.
Not like the self proclaimed "special one", who is still one of the greatest players in the world, But - come on.
You have to watch a video called: Lionel Messi - The Art of Passing - HD
Even if Messi hadn't scored a single goal in his career, he'd still be running for GOAT, that´s how good he is.
He's the greatest ever. An all around player. From passing to vision to scoring goals hes got everything in his bag
Dont try to write about him,Dont try to describe him
Just watch him(Messi)
Btw great reaction👍
His GOAT status was solidified by his recent World Cup title. Not that he needed it to be the GOAT, but it was a nice addition to the trophy case.
The crazy thing about Messi is even with all of this, He is still humble. Never called himself the best or even good. Every time a reporter asks him a question relating to his greatness he changes the subject and starts talking about his team. you never see Pele, Maradona or Ronaldo ever do this. He is a great man that is worthy to be part of the history books in schools for the future generation.
Cant help getting emotional watching this little genius show what he has done over the years, you need watch a few games consecutively Alan to get a grasp on this man's talent.
He has an absurd amount of CONTROL of the ball and SKILL delivering it exactly where he wants it.
You can only marvel at the ability of this man.
In an era when footballers seem to be getting bigger, that lower center of gravity has helped him certainly.
Up till a couple months ago, people would say he can’t be the goat cause he never won a World Cup. Well he’s done that now 😊
Which even to say is such a stupid argument lol, a team trophy is what determines if he’s the goat? Lmao so if he was born in Ecuador he just straight up wouldn’t be in the convo how these delusional people call themselves football fans I’ll never know
I can assure u in his prime noone was able to stop him without committing foul or making him bleed. His prime was 2009 to 2013, then again 2015 to 2019 and again this 2022 he's back in form. In 2012 he scored 91 goals in 68 games and all 11 players combined of big clubs like Chelsea, PSG, Bayern Munich scored less goals than him. noone in the history of football has scored more than 86 goals in a year and Messi scored 91 which is unbreakable. 2009 to 2012 he won 4 consecutive ballon d'or which is basically the most reputed football award given to the best player of the year. He currently has 7 ballon d'or (favourite to win 2023 ballon d'or too), 6 golden boots, 5 iffhs playmaker awards and 2 Worldcup Golden Balls (most awards in football history)
6:58 The best defender and the beast goalkeeper in the world at that timepoint back then, both beaten...
He´s short, trying headers against much taller players, who jump much higher, is often senseless, but works still, sometimes...
AND has dedicated each single goal to his beloved grandma, in heaven (looking up and pointing to the sky after each goal...)
it’s considered a weakness because he’s left-foot dominant, so the video highlights his greatest plays with his right foot that isn’t used much. messi is also 5’7 which is below the average height of football players, most of them are taller. being taller means having a advantage of getting the head on the ball so it’s quite impressive to see a guy like him score with his head. plus the whole strength thing with him being short, he does a great job still holding possession of the ball, but it’s clear that it’s hard to because of the roughness he goes through.
As a FC Barcelona fan, born and raised in Barcelona, seeing a lot of those plays live has been something to tell your grandsons... I don't think there will be a player like him in generations...
What a beautiful history you share. Kinda envious, TBH, but still great for us europeans trying to get to his level of magic.
Don't feel bad - most of us were totally overwhelmed when we first found out about Messi!
The greatest most complete player of all time the goat 🐐
This man is the definition of football...The connection he has with his feet and the ball are magical to watch
Am amazing player, simply the greatest. We have grown old watching all those amazing moments. My favourite is at 7:05, when he just twists the other man's blood so much that he just falls over. Love it.
That video is old. He has 7 balon d'ors and eyeing #8 after winning the World Cup (the big missing piece in his legacy) at age 35. He also since won the Copa America with Argentina as well. Two major international trophies. Recently won the French league title with PSG.
He is also the all time soccer assist leader. So not just goal scoring but overall play making.
He will be second all time goals sometime in the couple months trailing CR7 by ~25 goals but in 140 fewer games as he is a couple years younger.
thats why he is the GOAT
Its great to see more people witnesses messi and football/soccer in general, i remember i had 2009 Barcelona jerseys that my father gave to me with messi name on it, my first football jerseys that i had
Great reaction.
It's insane! I watch Messi lots of time cause it's hard to believe a human being is capable of doing that.
I’ve been watching messi highlights for years and I’m still seeing ones I’ve not seen before
He’s so far above the rest it’s unreal
Messi sets a standard; not just any standard - THE CEILING. Whenever he gets the ball, everybody expects something spectacular - the audience, his teammates, the opponents, everyone. Everyone who watches his games will be able to tell you what it's like - when he gets the ball, the whole stadium goes into a different mode. You can see the hyperfocus and stress in his opponents' body language. They close him down immediately, usually with two or three players, and he will still manage to get out of the situation 9 times out of 10 and creates something.
Lo más grande q se vio en una cancha de fútbol.. y se verá.. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷..linda reacción amigo..
It is never too late to enjoy Football and these great players and the GOAT! There are no words left for me to add since I watched his first goal for Barca`s men`s team, when he was just 16 years old. But please, watch more videos about Messi and the game it self. The more you know about the game, the more you understand why he is the GOAT and not only because his skills, stats and Trophies/Tittles. Best Regards from Finland!!
I am from Argentina, and been playing Football my whole life. One thing you need to understand about this sport, is how difficult is to control the ball in 1 touch, playing full speed, with fast balls and preasure of defenders..
Try to pay attention at Messi first touch and your mind will explode xD
For example, that goal he made at 4:32.. he received a 50 mts long pass, and he just make it look so easy
I am a Zlatan fan, he did some outstanding things that no one else ever did. And Ronaldinho played the most beautiful football ever. And the real heroes are the defenders and i adore great creative midfielders like Özil or Modric. But the greatest of all? Messi, no doubt.
Just one compilation
I’ve been watching messi compilations for 4 weeks solid and I’m still seeing new stuff 😮
It’s got to be his brain that really sets him apart 🤷♂️
He does stuff no one else has even thought of
A definite genius and the undisputed 🐐
I like how some people appreciating Messi without disrespecting Ronaldo here meanwhile some people are trying to prove why Messi is better than Ronaldo rather than proving why Messi is the greatest
3:30 that's a very accurate description of Messi. He is the football highlights all in one.
Love your channel bud, watched so many of your vids, it's so varied and easy to watch - would love to see you dive deeper into some more football reactions!
It's great to see how even if football isn't your main sport you still have a very intuitive understanding of what you're seeing and why it's so good! That's awesome
What a beautiful sport, what greatness that of Messi
love to see someone who may not be an expert but is able appreciate and understand the magnitude of what this is
Messi’s the only player that has 4-5 other players running after him, the only player that makes opponent fans cheer for him scoring because he plays a BEAUTIFUL GAME🙌🏾 THE GOAT
Always ten steps ahead of every player.
Now imagine watching that live every week for a decade and believe me there's much more
It's always cute to see americans discover messi😂😂and that is half his career😂😂
Welcome to the world of messi my friend!
Last thing,when you said messi in his prime a laught so hard😂😂
He is born and will die in his prime mate🎉
11:13 And He does this Almost Every Time He plays in some way shape or form and He's one of the Strongest players I've ever seen , he's fouled but get right back up& doesn't Give up the ball easily. He provides Magical moments & shines in either Goalscoring , Dribbling , Passing , Free Kicks , Team Play Goals , Solo goals etc. He's been doing it for 18 years now. Superhuman 🇦🇷🔥
Please react to Lionel Messi The Greatest of all time movie next ✨❤️
Lionel Messi won every football honours. Won the World Cup and Copa America with Argentina.He won La Liga, UEFA Champions League, European Super Cup and World Clubs Cup with Barcelona. Won the League with Paris At Germain.
I wish he come to play in argentina and win copa libertadores
Even at age of 35, having lost a step, he still led Argentina to winning the World Cup, AND was named the Best Player of the World Cup! He's STILL head and shoulders above everybody else! If he had other good players around him when he played for Argentina, he would have been World Cup Champion a long time ago, but let's face it, to win the World Cup, you have to also have some luck be with you, so I still considered him the GOAT even without winning one world cup. The difference between Messi and other superstars is that other superstars do the same things as others, but better and more consistently. With Messi, he does things that no other player has done before...such as dribbling through almost an entire team! Over and over!
Messi in his prime was unstoppable! He was in a class by his own
Pretty good. Reminds me of me in my youth.
Excelente reacción. Un saludo desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Great video dude 👍🏻
"Two against four, but one of them is Messi" is next level. 😄
I like how you said there are a lot of football highlights out there but they're different people doing amazing things, but this is Lionel Messi doing all of them by one man himself. He definitely had crappy plays every now and again, but hey it's not hard to play crappy football. But not everyone can play that kind of football like Messi even in the best play of their lives.
He got 91 goals in year while in the same year best of teams all together did not score so many he is Merlin's son magical Messi
You can find videos of some of the absolute top players speaking about Messi saying that what he does is not human, like he is an alien. Its hard to find in any sport a player that is so much better than the other top dogs. I saw this two times: with Messi and Maradona. Special type of players with god given hability
sorry but Maradona not that good u say this probably bcz u are Latin but there is no doubt Messi no 1
Messi is called the GOAT because he is the GOAT. Simple as that.
If Pele had played in Europe maybe he would have been but it's Messi, it's simply Messi.
Edit: Messi is Maradona whit twice the goals, trice the assists, quice the longevity and 0 the drugs.
In his prime top goal scorers of the year 2012
1. Messi - 91 goals
2. Borussia dortmund -88 goals
3. Chelsea - 87 goals
4. Psg - 86 goals
5. Man utd - 85 goals
6. Cristiano Ronaldo - 63 goals.
In this list except for cristiano and messi all the others were clubs.
Messi outscored some of the biggest clubs and their whole team goal scorers put together. U know how insane that is!!!! He is not human😈😈.
"Weakness" was a bit of irony to shut those up who say "yeah hut he's not so good on his weak foot/head" etc. He wasn't as good with those things as his left foot but he really wasn't deficient either.
and for the most part, those defenders against him are considered one of the best, fastest, gifted players the game has ever seen
That vid was made 2019 now he’s achieve more ❤
Great video, dude! I recommend you to watch highlight videos of any other soccer player... You'll find that no other player does such crazy and almost-impossible things than Lionel Messi. I'm not Argentinian, I'm from Uruguay, but the guy is out of human leagues!
The best player I have ever seen......and I watched play Diego Maradona.....another martian of football....welcome to our passion
Runs like Barry Sanders, passes and shoots like Larry Bird. :)
the only way to stop him was to nail his team, opponents picked on a few lows & bad players the team had and prayed he wouldn't retaliate. That was how you could beat him : you beat his team.
Me mata ver a gente que recién descubre a Leo jajaja primero: la pelota hace comba ent todos lados menos en Bolivia.
Segundo: Francia.
Tercero: en Aregentina Ever Ludueña dijo que hay solo una forma de parar a Messi y es no dejarlo llegar a la cancha a jugar jajajja
Saludos!! 😎💜🇦🇷
El mejor comentario!!
@@moralesmartinjavier1893 gracias jaja
These videos are great to show you he passes the eye test. You can SEE how great he is... that's nice.. but a lot of players have passed the eye test before.
What makes Messi the absolute greatest are his stats:
7x Ballon d'OR (this is the world football MVP award)... and on track for an 8th. 7 is already the all-time record.
12x Domestic League titles
4x UEFA Champions League titles
15x Argentina Player Of The Year
1x Olympic Gold Medal
1x Sub-20 World Champion
3x Club World Champion
1x Copa America champion
1x World Cup champion
... then the records:
Spain La Liga all time goals: 474
Spain La Liga all time assists: 192
2nd All-time goals across all competitions: 807 (31 behind Ronaldo, but he's 2 years younger than Ronaldo and they're both still playing). Maradona isn't even in the top 25 on this list.
All time most goals in a calendar year: 91
All time most goals in a single season (seasons are like school years Sept-May): 73
Longest gap between first and last Ballon d-Or: 12 years (maybe 13 this year).
Only player to win Ballon d'OR in 3 different decades: 2000s, 2010s, 2020s.
Longest goalscoring streak in a domestic league: 21 matches in a row.
Only player ever to score 40+ goals in 12 consecutive seasons.
... and these are just SOME of the accolades. If I gave you the full list I'd be here 2 hours typing shit.
Messi is the greatest of all times he’s always in his prime bro, even if he’s 35 years old now. He won the World Cup
i adore that ua really understand,how only Messi does these things,he makes people look silly,he just plays super diffrently than any other player ever,and that is a fact,noone plays even similar to Messi,most of the best footballer ever were saying that Messi was best evr at 19,which is ridiculous if you think about it! football players peak 24-30 Messi was best ever at 19,Puyol one of best defenders of all time and of Barcelona,said that Messi didnt even have to train with team,or have any roles,he was just allowed full freedom n the field at all time. Becuse he knows best better than coach better than anyone.
im Real Madrid fan!
I would like to suggest that you play Richard Whiteley being bitten by a ferrett while interviewing a ferrett keeper the clip is easy to find on TH-cam Richard Whiteley Ferrett.
You will love this.
Just the opening tells you...he does things that just make you go WOW!....and that's at the lower end...some of things I've seen him do just leave you speechless...I'm still not sure they're possible even though he's done them...Plus what you need to remember is, he's doing all this not against any old schmuck, but against other World class players.
You ask what dso you do as a Goalie....you do your best, but there arew times when all you can do is stand there and admire what he's done, knowing you never had a chance
Just think...this is just a short 15 minute highlight reel, you could probably put together a feature film length reel if you tried to show everything - I mean it doesnlt even include this years World Cup
Argentina's national proud! enjoy the magic!
It is insane, indeed. I'd say he's the greatest athlete (not just soccer player) of the 21st century. Maybe even in the history of organized sports. I dunno. There are some boxers and Michael Jordan and Tom Brady are pretty special, but... Now that he's won a World Cup? Messi might be the Super GOAT. Gotta remember that soccer is played worldwide and you don't hafta be a genetic freak to play it. Dude is only five foot six and yet he stands taller than..
He is playing against the best players in the world and hammering them.
Messi 🇦🇷 will be in his prime at 45 against the youngster's of today 👍
messi >>>>> others players
He is The Greatest of all time
You are very astute sports fan. I believe Messi is the best sports person to ever play any sport.
Really, Messii not as fast as he was, Almost though. But now he really does more magical things. As amazing as his runs through the whole defending team were/are, His thought out and perfectly played goals of today are more impressive. An interviewer was just beginning to ask the coach of an oposing team that just lost to messii and before any question as the coach sits down to analyze the game with everybody he says "What a sltrike that was!? What a strike!!" And it isn't just his skills and goals. It is how he is so humble and honest and such a good guy through all this. Not like these big headed pr athletes we see all the time.
Yeah. He is good. One of, if not the best of this era
You can argue if he is the greatest of all time,but at this era he is clear of everyone!
Thanks Mr. E.B.
"in his prime" dude's just won the World Cup at 35. I'd say he's still in his prime 😂
Lio Messi I'm a footballer who knows his shit from Europe Messi is different he's a naturally born footballer he can play anywhere on the pitch
u have a mighty beard bro
He is literally a human highlight you are very right at that, most of great players have 10 or 20 moments like those,Messi has 400 or more... Most of his goals and assist are one time in a life play for other players. Its not even close to the second best. He beat every single record, goals, assits, free kicks, most leagues on a club, 7 ballons d'Or and now Champion of the World... Just people which dont watch football wil argue he isn't the best
This is an old video I guess. He has won another ballon d'or (7th)
the goat of football
He's on about 4 million dollars a week , for that money you'd expect him to be the best...
Messi is like when you create a FIFA player and set everything to 99.
The Copa America is going to be played in the United States 2024 for the first time in history . The final game in Qatar world cup with Argentina vs France was insane . The whole world watch that . 🏆🇦🇷
Copa América 2016 was played in the USA
Good react ! Messi is just pur destiny… Destiny to be the GOAT
Those stats arw not updated. He is still active
hes the goat by far
You need to add more new records now for this G.O.A.T
Looks like he is playing for Inter Miami next season
messi hizo grande al barcelona
He is THE GOAT he is THE MOST SPETACULAR ATHLETE EVER
Messi the greatest of all time
la Liga is the spanish national futbol competition, one per year. last several months.
Messi is the greatest player ever 🐐✨
Actuallly you are not wrong, his parents gor inspired by Lionel Ritchie and they name him after the singer soyouare kind of good
It got to a point where it was pointless to even try to stop him just to save embarrassment.
👑King⚽Messi👑is only comparable to himself
No player in the history of the world has seven Ballon d'Ors like Messi and will get his eighth Ballon d'Or after winning three world championships with the Argentine national team, compared to Messi only.
