Despite the goal, Messi is harshly criticized in France

After the match against Lille, where PSG won 4-3 in the last minute thanks to Lionel Messi’s free kick goal, different sports media in France harshly criticized the Argentine player. The newspaper L’Equipe pointed against the Rosario and put a five-point rating to his performance and also added that “we should expect more from such a player in such an important game, in such a delicate situation. We were not far from having witnessed one of his most disappointing performances of the season.” Likewise, the goal was highlighted on the end: “As usually happens lately with Messi, a flash of genius, a suspended moment came to change everything. His free-kick delivered a team that expected nothing less from its star.” On the other hand, Le Parisien scored it with a four and pointed out that “a shot that stops Chevalier, a good screen in the goal of 2-0 … And that’s it. The Argentine was invisible. Until this free kick, which he gets and converts in added time. Out of all logic. That’s also what Messi is.” Finally, both media highlighted the performance of the runner-up of the world, Kylian Mbappe, since they made it clear that he was the figure of the match.
