It was a long tale before the times I just got accustomed to knowing soccer and watching the sport on the TV. People were rushing for buying tickets and going to the Stadium with full enthusiasm. Now I just wonder, how does time fly ? Maybe to have a taste at the soccer and the actions, it is not sufficient to have 2 decades of time into the big screen of your tv. I am frankly speaking, not enough times.
Messi might retire after playing a year or a two. What else could happen there ? The good thing is that, he has delivered for his Country and the fans around the globe more than any other players did in the grassy pitch. Its not a fairy tale or a fact from fantasy, but he did it with utmost ability and showed a great talent.
Off late, I just gotten into a new talent of writing many things and on different subjects, although I had the skills too in the past. I started to think of Messi and feel like writing 2-3 books at a time wouldn’t be enough to describe what he has done and achieved in his lifetime of sporting career. There would be long lists of even the titles and championships he won as a team.
The above scene is a matchtime scenario where a throw in would occur and referee is substituting a player. From the scene, it would be possible to look at the match conditions and even how the players are turning on. Messi is also in the screen. Yet what I think that, what was Messi's specialty of play was his rhythm that was excellent in deed.
He quite capably could hold rhythm and then being calm and composed, he could pull off the plans he had and adjust to a new dimensions too. Turning out a match results from the other team by showing brilliant and timely skills is one thing he possessed. No other players had such quality prominently.
You could look at the world cup performance of him where he showed brilliance. Maybe, it is not possible in modern days to win a big title like a FIFA world cup with own qualities to match them. But a good team work was needed and alongside Messi,to assist his vision there were other players who came by and made his dream come true.
Thats how a normal team performance turns out to be a legendary tale and quite luckily Messi got everything inside him. The ability to make dreams come true with hard work,professionalism and the mixture of integrity too.
I would write about Messi with periodic writing later on.
Thanks for the time.
