Lionel Messi is a wizard. We all knew this before Friday’s World Cup quarterfinal against the Netherlands, but we got some more evidence during the game anyway.
World Cup fans around the world celebrate soccer's big tournament
Fans around the world are tuning in to cheer for their teams during the 2022 men's World Cup tournament. The latest wizardry from the Argentina star came in the first half, when he conjured up a passing lane for his side’s opener where no such lane existed. Messi picked up the ball 40 yards from goal and had six Dutch defenders between him and the goal, with two well-marked runners in front of him.
Look at the situation Messi is in, and try to guess where he could play a killer pass. There does not seem to be much of an opportunity.
