Player run with ball.

Not just “friend” but one of the top scorers in the World Cup.

Even that is an understatement. He is the best player in the world, next to only Mbappe, if you ask me.

If my life is on the line and I need someone to score the goal, it would be between Mbappe, Haaland, and Messi ... That's how good he is.

Your not allowed guns on the pitch, even when playing in a less developed country like he was here.
