There is no doubt that Messi is a soccer phenomenon because of his way of playing, but also because of his quick thinking; His talent is on the court, but also in his head. Proof of this is that while he was playing the match against Mexico, he saw an error in his defensive scheme and took advantage of it, since that was how he scored the goal that opened the path to victory for the albiceleste.
In an interview for La Nación, Ángel Di María, who assisted Leo in the 1-0 draw for Argentina, revealed that Messi found a vulnerable area in the Mexican defense and asked him to send the ball there to open the bolt.
“I threw a poop at him… But hey he always fixes everything. Always, ”explained the midfielder, highlighting the talent of his teammate.
“The important thing is that, that the ball reached him. A few minutes before we talked about what was happening with them. He told me: ‘Give it to me through the means that they are getting inside’ (sic). The spaces behind were appearing and he saw it. When we had the opportunity, I gave it to him. He scored a terrible goal ”delved.
It is worth remembering that both players understand each other very well, because they are also teammates at Paris Saint-Germain and there is great mutual respect and admiration.
“I no longer have words. I play with the best in the world. I had the chance to do it at a club and I’ve been in the national team for 14 years. It’s a privilege. It’s everything”, concluded the albiceleste.
