The Messiah

More World Cup Fever. Well, what will happen on the fields.

“He is just brilliant. Georgie Best, Diego Maradona, Johan Cruyff … Incredible little man. He is the best player on the planet.”  Lionel Messi, who will be at the center of Diego Maradona’s plans for Argentina’s World Cup plans in South Africa, scores recently for Barcelona against Real Zaragoza, and leaves the commentator looking for comparisons.

For those who only think of Messi as a dribbler, in this clip he does that and more: he is strong on the ball, dispossesses an opposing player in midfielder, then starts a move–taking on two more players–that ends in goal.  Bring on June.
