something I love about Messi is the simplicity of some of the genius things he pulls.
i have this goal stuck in my mind, for example, the one at 2:30 here:
looks so simple, like he just sees something the others don't.
still have no explanation for this strike:
the angle, the distance, the body position, the power he gets on it, the perfect dip. doesn't seem possible.
Anyway, I hadn't seen much of Ronaldo playing before, but it looks like it would have been absolutely terrifying playing against him
