The Pulga Atomic (Atomic Flea) does it again, this time with a deft chip just over the Mexican goalkeeper. What will he do next? It was a wonderful shot, nearly teasing the keeper, as the soccer ball reached a high point and then dropped into the net. I can’t imagine how frustrating that must be for a goalie to have to play against Messi. As a keeper, you often end up on the ground watching the ball go into the back of the net.
This Argentinian side is playing beautiful football. What a Copa America final awaits us this Sunday – Brazil versus Messi, Riquelme, Tevez and Argentina.
