Amazing to see Leo in the semis! Love this so much. Too bad that Courtouis is his kryptonite. He hasn't scored on him ever and will be facing him in CL no doubt in years to come!

Went on twitter to see if there was any update about Di Maria, and already there are twitter-folk bashing Messi for not scoring in round of 16 or quarters :horse:

Higuain stepped shit. He had a well taken shot all the tournament so far and that from a deflected ball. So glad he didin't get to Barca.

Are you f'in blind? Your dislike for him clouds your judgement. His hold up play was on the money, some of his first touch (he killed one long ball with 2 defenders on him) was excellent, he harassed and pressed the defenders all game, and looked dangerous every time he got the ball around the box, and came close to scoring the goal of the tournament.

I know people here only care about Messi, and don't give a shit about the NT. But if you can't be fair in your assessment about the other NT players, you might as well don't comment on them.

Impressive defensive performance from Argentina. It's not all about attacking, and they didn't really have to. They are favorites again.

agreed, Higuain was excellent this game, i hope Di Maria is not out, Aguero comes back and Messi might have the help he need finally

While their own Ronaldo is out of the tournament a long time ago choking in every game. Just hilarious how retarded some of them are.

Agreed. Messi and Higuain were great in holding the ball up and killing Belgium momentum. Also Romero has some sort of connection with Higuain.

On topic, Messi with a very smart game, hopefully Di Maria is fit for the next game so he can show his full array of skills.

DAT pass to Di Maria :banderas:

Not as much of a kryptonite as Neuer. Come on, Brazil!

I think it's clear that Sabella sacrificed Messi in the 2nd half of the game ...just like Tata did, when Barca played against RM.

Lel, I'm sure Messi scored vs Atletico in 11/12, from a direct free-kick, curving it into the net, also remember a goal in 4-1 victory on Camp Nou in 12/13, that was a lob, don't really remember if Courtois was the goalie. It's just this season.
