The Best FIFA Men’s Player 2019: 3 reasons why Lionel Messi should win this award
2. Champions League speaks for Messi
Football is a team sport, and achievements of the team do enhance the valuation of the crucial players to achieve the glory. However, it is unfortunate when you perform brilliantly but it takes one bad day to take all away from you.
Similar story is of Messi, he was having one of the best seasons of his career until he crashed out with his team in the second leg against Liverpool.
If Barcelona had survived that match, then the Argentine International would have a better claim to win it, but taking away all the credit because of one match seems bit unfair too.
Messi was ay ahead of all the goalscorers in the Champions League, as he scored 12 goals in 12 games for Barcelona in the competition.
