Messi is still good now. An in decline Messi is better than 90 percent of players.

Very similar indeed. Main difference at the end of it is him scoring with his right foot rather than left. He also starts from wider than Maradona did. But overall extremely similar.

Yeah, not interested in any argument or animosity, but it is a bit weird to 'announce' you're leaving a forum. Very self-important.

Fair enough.

Fati seems like a great guy though, I like him even if he does try to wind people up. He trolls but he does it with humour and a bit of charisma at times. No nastiness involved. No ad homs.

Even if Euro is better, the Copa is still an interesting tournament. It doesn't have to be one or the other, both are football.

Ah right. I think he quoted me and said 'the irony' when I made that long post on there about Ronaldo (I got banned pretty quickly). It makes sense now.

What's his Redcafe name?

It's been said many times before, but the Getafe goal is very similar to Maradona against England.

Have to spare a thought for Enner Valencia. I know they came back after he went off the park but he must be gutted.

Even though he's playing today, honestly wouldn't put it past him to stay up all night supporting Ecuador :lol:

On suicide watch if/when that bellend goes home lol.

Yeah these 'multi-purpose' NFL stadia are an abomination for playing football matches.

They almost look like a victim of their own success - they've did so well in the last two tournaments that maybe a little complacency has now crept in and they almost 'expect' to win, even playing at 75 percent. They need to improve for the next game against Canada or Venezuela. If they do they...

Definitely. Having him in goal spreads confidence throughout the team.

It's not just that - it's also his sheer larger than life personality and belief to win. He has balls. Romero was a good goalkeeper but he was never anywhere near as inspirational as Martinez.

They were a bit lucky there boyos lol. Bad Panenka by Messi but Martinez the main man. Other than that some great penalties by Alvarez, Mac Allister, Montiel and Otamendi. Ecuador can take great credit for battling and getting the stoppage time goal.

Ha, I have IPTV but I paid £16 to get this legally for a month as every stream was in a foreign language in IPTV, lol.

Sorry mate, I am watching it legally on Premier Sports in UK. If you search around the internet there will be plenty of streams. Try hesgoals.

Underwhelming performance thus far from Argentina, but they've typically been stronger in the second half in this tournament. Credit to Ecuador - they created some really good chances especially in the first half of the first half. But they will be kicking themselves at not taking any. Messi...
