Lionel Messi is he from another planet?
Lionel Messi who just broke Gerd Muller's goal scoring record with 86 goals in one calendar year
(40-year-old record!) is a super human...it is obvious he will rein for a long time for any footballer
to reach the feat he has achieved or surpass his achievements in such
a short time.
When any opposition is billed to play Messi's Barcelona; the opposition coach will have the headache of
planning on how to contain the merciless Messi...the question is always on whether to man-mark him, put two
defenders on him or another midfielder to follow him around, any one of this
permutations most often than not does not stop the goal machine from scoring. He is nimble, he is skillful, he sees free spaces in a
clustered defence, he wriggles through and he knows where the goal
post lies....Lionel Andrés "Leo" Messi born June 24th, 1987

competitions
