2006 World cup Messi


During a time before Twitter and moment viral updates, the name Lionel Messi was just barely getting comfortable to the football world outside Spain in 2006. 

Messi was only 18 going into his first World Cup, and as opposed to a starter the youth was a special case pick in a group trained by Jose Pekerman and stacked with world-class ability. 

Leo being Leo, be that as it may, it didn't take him long to make his stamp.

He required only a bunch of minutes to help Hernan Crespo for his side's fourth of the amusement, and later hooked onto a Carlos Tevez go to make it 6-0 out of a group execution that has stood out forever. 

Messi's brilliant appearance was compensated with a begin in the last gathering amusement against Netherlands, a 0-0 draw that guaranteed Argentina would experience at the highest point of Group C. He at that point nearly demonstrated his group's supersub in the last 16, scoring subsequent to falling off the seat against Mexico late on with the score balanced at 1-1; tragically the strike was precluded for offside, albeit Maxi Rodriguez's blockbuster hit in additional time would have the effect.

Germany held the South Americans to a 1-1 draw after additional time, in the end winning on punishments. Messi, in the interim, remained kicking his foot sole areas on the sidelines, and Pekerman's choice to overlook his young wonderkid for Julio Cruz when he pulled a tiring Juan Roman Riquelme off would be hammered back home.
