Messi, in decline with Argentina: This time yes won the criticisms

Of the same way that in a lot of occasions -in the big majority- the criticisms that arrive from Argentina to the figure of Lionel Messi are not justified, in this occasion have that give the reason to the journalists of the country sudamericano. Because, if to somebody that never have seen a football match arrive him to say that the '10' that walked on the lawn is the best player of the world, is possible that had laughed .

Estadísticamente, Leo Messi himself participated in the intentona of traced back of Argentina. Of his boots arose the second goal of the albiceleste, with a shy shot from out of the area that was diverted by Gabriel Market to beat to Hugo Lloris. On the other hand, to fault of two minutes for the end put a balloon measured for the finish of head of the 'Kun' Agüero, that reduced distances.

However, the rest of the meeting was to forget for the '10' of the FC Barcelona. Leo Messi was almost always far of where was the balloon, and with him in the feet neither was able of desbordar. Although Ángel Gave María threw the team to the back during big part of the party, and especially in the final stretch of the same, to Leo Messi saw him in lacking occasions of 'blood', of the liveliness and necessary anger to ask the balloon.

It saw him apathetic, neither more neither less. And until it could say that it was missing him something of Cristiano Ronaldo -although it hurt to say it-. That touch of picardía, of winning will and of selfishness to the hour to ask the balloon, to do cost and to start to run, although it crashed against the rival defence, demolished him or stole him the ball transparently.

With his performance of this Saturday, Leo Messi can have promoted the arguments of the Argentinians that call him 'cold breast', something largely unfair taking into account that it is the maximum goleador historical of Argentina, and that if the albicelste classified for the World-wide, went to a large extent thanks to his goals saviours.

Leo Messi, more missing that never

Without going more far, and although of sporadic way, Leo Messi also appeared in front of Nigeria for, with a goal -the only that has marked in this World-wide-, guide to the albiceleste until the quarter-finals. The bad is that, in addition to being badly accompanied on the terrain of game, this Saturday to the '10' saw him lacking of energies, or of feeling.

Now, at least, the positive for the FC Barcelona is that his big star will have several days on holiday to recover after a very demanding season physical and mentally. How it will arrive Messi to Barcelona of here to some weeks? It will be necessary to see it.
