Peru had the first chance to score in the second half. In the 54th minute, Peruvian defender Anderson Santamaría headed out of the box from a six-yard box while floating off a free throw. This Santamaría almost left the Peruvian fans worried at 6 minutes. Messi was about to cross two defenders in the Peruvian box, Santamaría threw him. The penalty decision seemed to come, but the referee ordered play to continue. Messi got very close to the goal again in minute 6. If the goal were a dazzling goal! Messi’s career, however, is no less than the goal! Messi raced across Peru with the ball at his feet, effortlessly passing three Peruvian defenders along the way. Peru entered the area and aimed a shot to the left of the post, but the Argentine captain’s shot went wide.
Despite not scoring a goal, Messi has poured everything for the team throughout the game. The most criticized aspect of his game, he has repeatedly pressed him. He has been seen going down several times to snatch the ball from the opponent’s feet. If the goal, the game could have been beautiful for him.
Anyway Argentina won, Messi should be happy with that. Argentina, undefeated in 11 consecutive matches, will play its next match in the World Cup qualifiers in March next year. It will be a tough test, with two service games to play against Uruguay and Brazil.
