Messi's two goals in Argentina against Peru deserve the Ballon d'Or

Lionel Messi is the best player in the world and for many he is also the greatest of all time. It is clear that there are plenty of grounds for signing that and it is difficult for detractors to go against that statement. What was completely clear this Tuesday is that the Argentine star deserves all the awards there have been and will be, especially the Ballon d'Or 2023. He made it clear with his double in the first half with the Argentine National Team against his counterpart from Peru.

The 36-year-old Argentine star was the great figure of the 2022 Qatar World Cup, scoring 7 goals in seven games and this Tuesday he showed that his scoring ability does not decline over the years. The thing is that he had two clear chances and he sent them both to save. In the first it was after a great quick play that defined the far post from above. For his part, the second goal was a play that Julián Álvarez let pass well and he scored.

The best footballer in the world is nominated for the 2023 Ballon d'Or where he competes practically hand in hand with Erling Haaland. It should be noted that the Norwegian did not play in the World Cup but had a great performance with Manchester City, winning the UEFA Champions League and all the trophies that came his way. However, all the rumors and individual performances indicate that the best in the world is still the Argentine star.

In Spain they already give Lionel Messi the winner

While Leo competes against great colleagues for the highest individual trophy, in Spain they have already signed that it has emerged that Lionel Messi is the one who will win the Ballon d'Or and in this way he will reach his eighth. Without a doubt, the Argentine genius continues to demonstrate his entire hierarchy and his ability to make the Argentine National Team shine by being the capital. Against Peru and after an injury, he took out his magic wand.
