Chapter 1134 Santiago

"Messi..."

"Messi..."

"Yeah! The ball went in!"

"Dad, I always thought Messi was better than you..."

"What?"

"He just had bad luck."

"...There is something wrong with your IQ, I just thought you were joking." Dong Fangzhuo really wanted to slap him. It was okay for others to say so, but his own son actually said so.

How could Messi be better than me? He was far from it! Fans all over the world would not say that.

But it seems like Messi is in really good shape at this Copa America. A hat trick was performed in the first round. Messi scored the first goal in the second round only 5 minutes ago. According to this state, Messi may set a new goal record in the Copa America.

Sure enough, Dong Fangzhuo's guess was correct. Messi scored twice in the first half, and in just 10 minutes of the second half, Messi completed a hat trick.

And just before he left the field early, Messi also contributed an assist.

When he came off the field, the whole stadium was cheering for Messi.

Argentinian fans haven't had such pleasure for a long time.

Messi retired from the national team before, but after returning to China, he now brings happiness to the fans.

"Messi's current performance will overwhelm you."

"Ah, you damn Messi fan~" Dong Fangzhuo rolled his eyes.

"I have the Champions League. How strong your dad's performance is in the Champions League this year."

"Are you sympathizing with the weak? Didn't you just say you wanted to surpass me? Why are you looking at Messi now?"

"Yes, you are the best player in the world, but Messi is my idol."

This is not against the law. Dong Fangzhuo thought to himself that his son was right.

"Dos Santos is also a follower of Messi..."

"Oh my god, I'm going to talk to your godfather about tutoring! Why do you two like Messi..."

Dong Fangzhuo couldn't help it.

But after all, he couldn't stop his son from liking whoever he liked, as long as he wasn't gay...

He spent half the summer with his family and children.

Watching football, training, and spending time with my family, those are the three things.

And Messi also made a crazy comeback in this America's Cup.

In the first three games of the group stage, he scored 8 goals with two hat tricks and a brace, and also had three assists.

Then in the quarter-finals, Messi once again brought Argentina into the top four with two goals.

Dong Fangzhuo watched almost every game without skipping a beat, only to realize that this year's America's Cup had changed.

He clearly remembers that Brazil did not make it to the semi-finals at all, and the division was not like this. As a result, Neymar's Brazil also performed very bravely. Neymar's performance was second only to Messi. He ranked behind Messi with 8 goals. If this data were placed in previous years' Copa America, he would have been the top scorer, but not this year. In just the semi-finals, Messi scored 10 goals.

Maybe the two of them were holding back their energy in the competition. The old king and the new king of Barcelona defended themselves with the most eye-catching performance on the court.

They were reported across Europe.

The Argentinian media "Ole" began to build momentum for Messi again.

"La Liga champion, Copa America champion, plus European Golden Boot winner, Messi has reason to win the Golden Ball!"

Spain's "World Sports News" has a similar view - "If Dong played the entire season at Manchester United, Messi might not have any chance, but Dong only played half a season, and Messi would undoubtedly have a lot of opportunities. Considering this is Messi’s first Copa America title, so it may gain a lot of points in the Ballon d’Or selection.”

Golden Globe Awards.

Dong Fangzhuo didn't care anymore, but Messi was different, he was only one.

But Messi's performance is really terrifying.

In the semi-finals, Messi scored two more goals, extending the number of goals to 14! Led Argentina to the Copa America finals.

In another semi-final, Neymar did not admit to giving up too much. He used a hat trick to send Brazil to the final. The host Chile could only suffer in the semi-finals, and Neymar's goals also came to 13.

There is only one goal difference between Messi and Messi.

Brazil's "Global Sports" cheered for Neymar - come on, Barcelona's new king, counterattack Messi in the final!

Argentina's "El Nacional" shouted for Messi - Defeat Neymar! Defeat Brazil! Slap Barcelona in the face!

To be honest, the main reason why Messi left Barcelona was because of the rise of Neymar. Now in the Copa America, Messi just proves that he is still stronger than Neymar.

Just look at this final.

Winner takes all, loser for Kou. It's okay if Messi wins, but if he loses in the final, it almost means that Barcelona will have no problem replacing him with Neymar.

Even if Neymar loses, it doesn't matter, he has played at a high level and he is still young! He is only 24 years old!

It’s Messi who can’t afford to lose. If he doesn’t win America, he will be 30 years old.

Dong Fangzhuo has won three Asian Cups in a row at this level of competition. Champion, once runner-up.

Not to mention a World Cup round of 16, a third place, a championship...

July 5, Chile, Santiago National Stadium.

Dong Fangzhuo, Cristiano Ronaldo, Dos Santos, and Dong Qiudi appeared in the final stands together.

Their appearance immediately caused thunderous cheers in the stands.

"Wardfake!"

"I'm not dreaming, am I? Aren't those Ronaldo and Dong? They actually came to watch the final!"

The four of them did not have VIP seats. They obviously came to watch the game on their own and were not officially invited.

Live camera footage also kept filming them.

The commentator of Argentina Sports Station lamented: "A Copa America final, gathering the top four players in the world..."

"This is a very meaningful final."

Dong Fangzhuo and Ronaldo successfully stole the spotlight and kept waving to everyone.

The final was completely opposite from before. Everyone wanted the championship, but it was not as exciting as the previous games.

The two most eye-catching people are Messi and Neymar. The two frequently use personal breakthroughs to threaten the opponent's defense, but to no avail.

Romario of Brazil Sports Station put forward a hypothesis.

"If it was Dong in the stands, he would find a way to pass the ball to his teammates, create opportunities for them to score, and maybe score."

"If it were Cristiano Ronaldo, Ronaldo would probably look for opportunities to score in the penalty area. He would not let go of his teammates' passes."

"Messi and Neymar focused more on breaking through with the ball, but the effect was not good. Both of them were heavily defended."

The score was 0-0 at halftime, with neither side scoring a goal.

Taking advantage of the intermission, the on-site reporter from Brazil Sports Station rushed to Dong Fangzhuo.

"Dong, who do you think will win in the final?"

"Messi, it's my personal feeling."

"Ronaldo?"

"I think it's Messi too."

"..."

Both men support Messi...
