Renowned Italian coach Claudio Ranieri praised Argentina captain Lionel Messi, who will lead his team to the World Cup 2022 final against France on December 18.
The 2015/16 EPL champion in charge of Leicester said the 35-year-old Argentine had never before in his career decided the outcome of matches the way he does now.
It's impossible to predict the result of games like this, but given that both teams are killing it on the counterattack, the team that scores first may have the advantage, especially France with Mbappe. Messi never seems to have decided the outcome of games as much as he does now. He has become the leader of the Argentine team, not only in terms of technique, but also in terms of charisma. He does everything, including extraordinary goals, and he is a champion who makes history.
