so answer this simple question? Does Messi run up to the ball and kick it?? Back up your words you are saying! I'm back in my comment. Now back yours? Once again? Does Messi run up to the ball and kick it? Or does he nonchalantly go to the ball??

you must not watch soccer either because it's boring? Because you obviously aren't watching Messi penalty kicks. He nonchalantly goes towards the ball, stops, and kicks it. I'm glad you don't like soccer either because it's boring. Because you obviously don't watch it either.

once again. What soccer match was you watching today? The world cup was on? Messi had penalty kick? You didn't see it? I'm glad you don't watch soccer either because it's so damn boring. But I'm just telling you since you missed it. Messi practically walked up to the ball, stopped, and kicked it real soft. The goaltender sucks. But so does soccer. And I'm also telling you that I could blocked Messi penalty kick today. And you can't have it too. Just stand there, don't move. Maybe you need to watch the highlights since you missed it.

@TxRangers

 

I can't believe I'm actually answering this but here goes.  Simply put, its a chess match.  If the keeper simply stands there like a dope, and Messi slots one in the corner he looks like a jackass.  So, he's forced to try and pick a side.  giving him a good chance to make the save.  To counter this, players like Messi a few other elites have resorted to this sort of jump stop getting the keeper to commit to a side even if its a slight lean killing any momentum then the striker slots it in the corner where the keeper is not.  and softly I might add.  if you know your opponent can't stop it why risk a hard shot? 

 

make sense ?

it makes a little bit of sense, but not much. All I know is, myself and you could stop Messi from scoring from his weak penalty shots. Imagine if LeBron James or Terrell Owens was a goalie. No one would ever score. What's funny is? The game is so boring, it's the world championships of soccer, and they had to stop playing because no one could score. How boring is this??, They stop playing because no one can score. So it reverts to penalty kicks. Which is a 50/50 proposition, it's all luck. Anyways. At least soccer is gone for another 4 years and no one will talk about it for another 4 years. And that's a good thing! And mark my word. NO ONE will talk about soccer for another 4 years.

you realize most of these keepers are Lebrons size right?  and yet, Messi still scores.  I'm done with this interaction as I can already tell where its heading.  fine, you won't watch soccer again until 2026. how will the sport go on without you?  time will tell.  an_popcorn

"most of the keepers are LeBron size"??? That is 100% false. I deal in absolutes. 100% facts. LeBron is 6 ft 9. He would be the tallest keeper ever to play soccer. The average goalkeeper height is 6 ft 2". I just gave you three facts. So no, most of the, actually none of them are, LeBron's height. So once again. If LeBron James was a keeper, with his jumping ability, no one would ever score in soccer against him. Nice try though?!

yep, I'm the FrontRunner. Don't get mad at me because Messi don't run up towards the ball, pauses, and kicks it. Don't get mad at me because he does that. I know for a fact both you and I could block his penalty kicks. You just don't want to admit it, because that would lessen Messi's greatness. But I'm just telling you. You and I could both block it.

and how do I sound completely stupid??? Are you telling me LeBron James COULD NOT be a soccer keeper?? Is that what you're telling me? Well you are actually right?! It would be a waste of time for LeBron James to be a soccer keeper. With his athletic ability, that would be a waste of his time and talent. How about Kobe Bryant? Could he be a soccer keeper? No one would score on him either. But again, that would be a waste of Kobe's time to be a soccer keeper. But explain to me why I sound completely stupid? I guess you're telling me LeBron James could not be a soccer keeper?

does this sound stupid? What if Allen iverson, Barry Sanders or Stephen Curry played soccer instead of their sports. How many soccer goals do you think Allen Iverson would score???? I know I know, "practice, you talking about practice"? Allen Iverson would score 5 goals a game if he played soccer. Barry Sanders might score 6 goals a game if he played soccer. Do you think the United States 1992 basketball Olympic team was any good??? It is a 100% fact, if other true athletes actually played soccer for a living in the United States, the United States soccer team would never lose a game. Just like the 1992 Olympics in basketball. Whenever we decided to send our true athletes, it was a easy gold medal.

US soccer team. TOwens, KBryant, Deion sanders, Barry Sanders, Iverson, LJames, Hakeem Olajuwon as their goalkeeper, Thurman Thomas, Michael Irvin, Dominique Wilkins. That's all they need for their team. Other countries would never score. Hakeem olajuwon as a goalkeeper! Other countries would never score. That's reality.

And one small tidbit. Hakeem olajuwon played soccer. It was boring to him because it was too easy. So he quit, took up a harder sport with basketball.

 I dont watch much soccer but based on what I saw I was not overly impressed with Messi either. When you watch highlights of Pele, Mardonia, and even more recently Mbape they all seem more dynamic than Messi.

 Dude you sound so ignorant and you make Americans look so stupid, lol, just stop with your nonsense.... USA may do a lot better or probably best best in the world if they used all their resources to perfect the sports of soccer... but don't belittle the otherworldly talents the world have present.

yes, you said it correctly. "USA may do a lot better or probably best in the world if they used all their esources to perfect the sport of soccer"!!!! Yes, you are exactly correct. And yes, I can belittle the other worldly talents because soccer sucks. And once again, if USA used all of their talents, messi and Ronaldo, wouldn't be anything in the sport of soccer. And it's hilarious that these other countries think these guys are great. Once again. If USA had LeBron James as a goalie, no one would score. USA would win every game just like they did in basketball.

so, I make America's look stupid by saying if LeBron James was a keeper, no one would score? According to you, I make Americans look stupid because I'm saying if Allen Iverson played soccer, he would score 5 goals a game against these non-athletic other countries? According to you I make America sound stupid when I say if Barry Sanders, deion sanders, Allen Iverson, Terrell Owens, Trea Turner, Hakeem olajuwon, Kobe Bryant, Dominique Wilkins played soccer, they would rule the soccer world??  Messi or Ronaldo wouldn't be anyone in the soccer world if the USA talent would play soccer. But it's a waste of their time. It would be a waste of Deion Sanders time to play soccer. It would be a waste of Dominique Wilkins time if he played soccer.

Imagine if Walter Payton or Tony Dorsett played soccer??? Do you think those guys would have been any good???? How about Doug Futie with a soccer ball? Do you think Tyreek Hill would be any good in soccer?? If those guys played soccer, Messi and Ronaldo would be no names in the soccer world. I can belittle other countries athletes, because they think these guys are great. Nope. They're only good because USA true athletes don't play soccer because it's a waste of their time if they played

really? That's your comment. Everyone, in every country, knows I'm right that Messi and Ronaldo would not be anything in soccer if the true USA athletes played. I guess you think Stephen Curry could not play soccer and dominate? I guess you think LeBron James could not be a goalie? I guess you think Ja Morant couldn't play soccer and dominate? I guess you think Tyreek Hill could not play soccer. I guess you think Jerry Rice, Walter Payton, Doug flutie, Steve Nash Allen Iverson, Trea Turner couldn't play soccer and dominate. Messi is 5 ft 6", 145 lb. USA athletes would dominate him. And everyone knows I'm right.

United States soccer team. LeBron James goalie, Stephen Curry, Trea Turner, stefon diggs, Justin jefferson, Tyreek Hill, Ja Morant, CeDee Lamb, Deebo Samuel, actually,  any NBA basketball player. USA would never LOSE the game with this roster. They would never tie, they would never have penalty kicks. They would score 12 goals a game. And everyone knows I'm right. USA true athletes don't play soccer because it's a waste of time for them. Stephan Curry does not want to waste his time playing soccer.
