Messi surpasses Maradona, Cristiano Ronaldo with goal in knockout round

Lionel Messi moved above compatriot Diego Maradona on all-time World Cup goals for Argentina with his ninth on Saturday during a Round of 16 clash against Australia, and he accomplished what Cristiano Ronaldo has not in five different World Cups — Messi scored in the knockout rounds.

Un delirante Canelo Álvarez amenaza a Messi, acusándolo de haberle faltado el respeto a México

El campeón del mundo de boxeo Canelo Álvarez está enojado con Lionel Messi y advirtió que la próxima vez que lo vea no será una tarde placentera para el argentino. ¿Por qué Canelo está tan enfadado? Según él, Messi le faltó el respeto a la bandera y a la playera mexicana después de la victoria 2-0 de Argentina sobre El Tri.

El gran problema con la historia de Canelo es que Messi no le faltó el respeto a ningún símbolo mexicano, lo que hace de toda la situación algo completamente tonto.

Messi and Argentina choke on their own hype in Saudi Arabia's historic upset

Argentina, ranked third in the FIFA Rankings and a trendy pick to win the World Cup, has suffered one of the greatest upsets in tournament history after Saudi Arabia, ranked 51st and expected to finish fourth in Group C, went toe-to-toe with the South American giant and prevailed 2-1.
