messi can't even tie romario's shoes without the refs. We all saw yesterday an obvious red card deserving challenge on algeria from messi and he wasn't even booked. Preferential treatment as usual. before messi could be considered even in the top five, one has to consider the significant protection he has received. I'm saying it, Messi wouldn't have lasted five minutes if he was playing in the 1966 world cup where pele was injured by portugal with fouls and had to stay on the pitch because there were no subs. claudio gentile committed a world record 23 fouls on maradona in 1982 without being sanctioned. messi would't have lasted two minutes in another time or even in this time without the help he receives

Massive result for DR Congo indeed…I think CR7 best days are behind him. Portugal keep playing him to their detriment…

@Cheeks
same here. Love football but having the US co-/host it is a sell out of epic proportions.
they deserve an apartheid South Africa type ban.

Massive result for DR Congo for real. They could top this group. The issue they had was scoring goals but with Wissa in the team now they have a proven elite goal scorer.
