‘The Last Dance’ in a world for two essential footballers to explain what has happened in football in the last fifteen years. Leo Messi either Luka modric they will live their last match in a world Cupwill lead for the last time with the ’10’ on their backs two teams that reach the semifinal of the most important tournament after having suffered the emotional exhaustion of having qualified in the penalty shootout, the Croatians in two consecutive games.
The expressiveness of the two teams defines how they live football and life. The albiceleste of the boys is canchera, quarrelsome, exciting, genuine, emotionally intense, so excessive and passionate that it takes your breath away. Croatia shows in the rictus suffering, hope, seriousness, commitment, union, respect.
The selector lionel scaloni insists on making us believe that Leo Messi It was always the same, that the idea that we are facing a ‘Maradonian’ Leo is an external perception. Leo Messi is the most Barça version we have seen wearing the albiceleste, he is footballingly identical to the one he conquered Ballons d’Or with the shirt of barca. But his way of expressing is uninhibited, more than mature, instinctive. Leo has gotten rid of the European corsets, he no longer smiles, he laughs out loud. He no longer looks out of the corner of his eye waiting for what the others are doing, now he gets on the stage to dance with a naked torso because he knows that around him he only has souls that revere the soccer player and the person.
They need in Argentina to bring Leo closer to the figure of Maradona because Diego won the star in 1986. When they see Leo Messi get angry with the referee, when they see him calling Wout Weghorst they insist that he resembles Maradona. Pelusa el ‘bobo’ didn’t use it even when he watched cartoons. From asshole up. Messi is on the field of play the ’10’ of the best Barça with a small or big difference; in the barca I played for pleasure, for the love of soccer; With the national team, he plays determined to bring joy to a country.
Luka modric delivered to Leo Messi his sixth Golden Ball. The Croatian came from winning the golden trophy the previous year to the outrage of griezmannwho believed he deserved it more after winning the World Cup with France. Modric passed him the Ballon d’Or with the delicacy with which he hits the ball, pampering it, protecting it, with the certainty that any ball he touches Modric it will improve after going through your boots.
Messi and Modric respect and admire each other. Leo has collected Ballon d’Ors in competition with Cristiano Ronaldo, whose impetuous and collectible goals always placed him on the podium of the best.
Modric enjoyed the successes of the real Madrid and of his selection without fuss, relaxed, with the family, smiling and embracing, in victory and in defeat. Short, with small feet, both are cut from the same pattern. Luka, competitive by genetics, will not see a bad gesture. Don’t be surprised if you discover the most Argentine of Messi, deep down he was always like that even though he didn’t express it.
