Copa America 2021 Discussion [Pregame/Match Thread]

Hope this is just the start of an amazing stretch of life for you.

 

Congratz guys! I'm happy that my batman signature worked. It took a while, but we got there.

 

Congrats guys! I didn't post here for some years now!

Happy for Argentina, and Messi.

Not sure if it was posted before, Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni: "Lionel Messi played against Colombia and Brazil with hamstring problems."

 

My captain. No need to be a cheerleader.

 

He will play until 45

 

My captain. He doesn't talk much but his will say everything. Just like Maradona back then (except he talked more).

 

One hope might be that the whole "Dybala and Messi can't play together" thing is true and Dybala really steps up in his place, but I dunno about that.

Don't think Dybala can step up to replace Messi in the future. I can see Messi will retire after 2022 world cup.

 

When you feel down , keep this image as your wall paper and keep trying.

 

I mean you have Dybala and Lautaro but who else in attack for the next generation

 

I mean Messi with him I think Qatar will be his last World Cup if anything

 

Been reminiscing, this is still the most beautiful thing I've seen on a football pitch:

If only Maradona was playing for Italy tonight.#EnglandvsItaly https://t.co/ZmDJCfDQkt

Argentina fans in Kerala celebrate

We have a very good chance in quatar

These euro teams are spoiled and the euros is the real mickey mouse cup the games have been garbage there all supposed top level teams got humiliated and the rest are barely at Ecuador's level

Imagine our players in proper pitches and not being hacked to pieces every touch.

 

Evaluating the passes from England and Italy today; Argentina and Brazil's surgical and execution in passes is far better. It could be the rain affecting it, but I doubt it. We do have a good chance.

 

Colombia apperarently was Argentina hardest opponent in this tournament. They looked way more dangerous plus more physical than Brazil.

 

Otamendi went full mortal kombat. I'm sure at that point he didnt care about red.

 

Somewhere Maradona is very happy.

 

Messi’s message on Facebook:
—————


In Maracaná and in the classic against Brazil...

It was an amazing Cup, we know we can still improve a lot, but the truth is, the kids left the soul and I can't be more proud to be lucky to be captain of this spectacular group.

This success I want to dedicate to my family who always gave me the strength to keep going, to my friends I love so much, to all the people who banking us and especially to the 45 million Argentines who so badly spent with this virus shit, especially those who got closer. It's coming for all of you. And of course also for the Diego that sure bank us from wherever he is.

In order to continue celebrating, we have to keep taking care of ourselves, let's not forget that there is still a lot to return to normal and take advantage of this happiness to grab a little strength to fight together to win the virus.

Thank you God for everything you gave me and thank you for making me an Argentine!!!

AMERICA CHAMPIONS!!!!!!
