Argentine presenter Veronica Brunati, who has followed Lionel Messi throughout his career, defended the Albiceleste captain after the contested election of “La Pulga” for the title of The Best Fifa Player of the Year.
Ballon d’Or France Football 2023 logically, since the 2022 World Cup was taken into account by the jury of journalists, Lionel Messi made an incomprehensible The Best Player of the Year Fifa 2023. This trophy was to reward the best player on the first eight months of 2023 and Erling Haaland was the clear favorite after making the Premier League-FA Cup-Champions League treble with Manchester City. But “La Pulga” was able to count on the plebiscite of the national captains to beat the Norwegian scorer. An election revealed Monday evening which shocked the world of football, except Argentina…
Argentine journalist Veronica Brunati spoke on X to defend a player she has followed since her debut: “ Messi didn’t win The Best as a gift. He deserved it thanks to the recognition of his colleagues. This is perhaps the greatest reward of his career after the World Cup, because it is recognition of his genius, his efforts, his career and everything he has brought to football. They admire him because he is unique. And they paid tribute to him with their vote. For the most part, they are the best captains of the great teams in the world. Is there better recognition? And I love that it drives statistics fans and results apostles crazy who don’t understand Messi. And everything that Messi represents for football. No footballer has given so much to football in so many years. Is it measured in numbers? He broke all records. What we can’t count is the enthusiasm it generates in those of us who love the sport “.
Veronica Brunati, who experienced the crazy epic of Lionel Scaloni’s Argentinians at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar very closely (presenting the matches from the sidelines), has a terrible argument: Luka Modric, Robert Lewandowski, Kylian Mbappé , Mohamed Salah, Harry Kane, Son Heung-Min, Virgil van Dijk, Gianluigi Donnarumma, Jan Oblak, Christian Pulisic, Radamel Falcao and Federico Valverde placed Messi in 1.
Messi no ganó The Best por su presente. Lo ganó por el reconocimiento de su colegas. Quizás el mayor premio de su carrera después de la Copa del Mundo, porque es el reconocimiento de asu genialidad, a su esfuerzo, a su trayectoria, a todo lo que le ha brindado al fútbol.
Lo…
