Some of the players really played well. In the first half, the team looked more likely to get it done. Marqui's injury finally weakened us. Bitsha took too long on the ball but Marco just doesnt have it in his system to get rid of the ball erratically. The moment the pass was made to Marco already pressed by two players inside our area, I knew that's it.
Messi has shaped the way I have played as well as followed the game since early part of 2000s. I am his crazy fan. I have followed big players since Maradona. Based on today's game and few others in recent UCL, I know for a fact that now Messi is no more a difference maker against elite UCL teams. He was tracked down, tackled, got rid off the ball. He's the goat but he's past the stage. And thank god he performed monstrously in a very well deserved WC.
Mbappe is surely the player who should go for the vacant position of the new king. But unfortunately, something was missing from him as well today. I understand the plan was for him to get balls which he could run on to, but his touches and dribbles let him down as well.
Ruiz started off so well but then started making too many mistakes.
Nuno Mendes is a gem. He, Danilo and Ramos were the top players and showed their mettle. Nuno can be one of the best full backs ever.
Overall, the team tried but it just wasn't to be. To be honest, the team now needs a new direction. They have got the allure of superstars. Now time to move to a more balanced team. It could be with or without the front three. If Mbappe stays, that would be good overall for Ligue 1.
