Sad to learn that the Aussies have brought in Keanu Baccus just to do a hatchet job on Messi

I hope the ref is strong enough tonight

Zizu, man please. What do Australia do?? Quality wise, they are worlds behind Argentina and Messi, it's all about winning. To me this is clever strategy!

Ferguson said one of his biggest regrets was not man marking Messi in the CL final they lost to Barca. That's coming from one of the best managers of all time.

What do you realistically expect the Aussies to do?

messi has been in the game for how long, 20 years? You think teams havent gone out to get him ever in that time?

Yep

Australia are burning themselves out. I admire the effort though. Same as USA earlier, just lacking the quality.

Yeah, it's a shame, Australia gave their all.

Well since they are facing each other in the quarters, I'd say it's a certainty.

Aussies did well but The Messi Team is of course too strong



but that argentine defence, LOL LOL LOL if the aussies were able to easily breakthrough that, we have no problems at all there and i'd say no focus on Messi, focus on playing our own game

Messi now has 14 goals + 4 assists in 11 games in 2022 for Argentina.
