Messi grabbing a hatrick, virtually beats Brazil single handedly in a 4-3 thriller.
Messi, scoring three of the four goals for Argentina, savoured the triumph of their win despite it being a non-competitive match. Brazil started off with a 1-0 lead coming from Romulo. But by the end of the first half, Messi came bac with two goals to but the Argentines in the lead 2-1.
Brazil came back in the second half with two goals from dos Santos Oscar and Hulk, but the lead just lasted four mins as Fernandez equalized in the 76th minute. Messi then scored the winner in the 85th minute, smashing the shot into the top right corner.
The match however ended on a sour note as Marcelo and Lavezzi, who only came on in the second half, were sent of for the confrontation between the pair.
I actually wonder how long it'll be before Brazil get back to their glory days of at least the 2002 World Cup. Honestly, I've been missing the Brazilian flair that every football enthusiast loves. Wonder if hat da will ever come.
