LOL, now it's obvious you don't watch football. Or any sports. Just stop.

Watch the whole sequence. When the pass was made, the 2 defenders were occupied by Messi as they were closest to him and nobody was marking Suarez. Or do you even watch football?

The goal where Suarez scored was due to Messi. He was so wide open b/c his defender was wary of Messi. There were several instances (I was watching a French broadcast) they were talking louder when Messi drew at least 3 defenders. He had a quiet game, but that's because it's due to his...

2 more defenders closed on him when he was about to shoot so he might have rushed it. Pretty unfortunate because the run was ridiculous.

Can't be worse than WC criticism. That's the biggest prize there is. He came back fine.

Man can't wait for Liga to start again. Messi needs to unleash his frustration again.

Pretty much. And foul him every time he touches the ball. That's what ARG did, and that's what Chile did. Both teams had a game plan to neutralize Messi.

Sampaoli also explained the difference between Barcelona Messi and Argentina Messi: "At Barça they look for him and the always pass to him. In Argentina it's not like that and it's easier to neutralise him. "I don't agree with those who are criticising Messi, though. You have to analyse the...

You can see Messi's frustration also. From his gestures, he was like "WTF man"

Pretty much. Iniesta, Xavi, and Busquets have repeatedly stated they look to Messi every time they have the ball first and foremost. From this video, his ARG teammates ignore him even when open. It's ridiculous. Maybe due to lack of chemistry and thus not on the same wavelength? But this video...

No way Messi will quit the NT. He has said again and again wearing the national shirt is his pride and joy.

Man just stop it.

I think losses like these drive him to be better. He was tremendous after the WC loss. Hopefully this will drive him again. He will win with ARG eventually.

Hopefully this game will show that ARG needs to stop picking Higuain. Absolutely chocked the PK.

One tournament or one season or two don't make a player great. Greatness is demonstrated by consistent performance at the highest level. Ronaldo's peak wasn't long enough to even challenge Messi.

Please stop. Pele and Maradona never won at the level Messi has won. CL is the greatest competition there is nowadays. Lack of the NT success will have people like you who doubt Messi as the GOAT, which is fine. But please, Messi has no mental issues. The guy has played at this ridiculous level...

I don't mean that. I mean the drive to continue to push himself to greater heights. He's chasing after himself right now, so he needs to continue to push himself due to the lack of success with his NT.

More motivation for Messi. He has won everything at the club level, now I'm sure he's more motivated more than ever after losing again with the NT.

Time for ARG to get Simeone in. Tata is a bum. Higuain is a disgrace. Feel so bad for Messi.

I think Chile has found a way to stop Messi: just foul him every time. Jesus. Every time he touched the ball in the last 30 minutes he has been fouled immediately.
