After Haaland scored, he rushed out of the stadium excitedly, ran all the way, and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate.
The surrounding Leeds United players also chased out and gathered with the Norwegian on the sidelines, wildly celebrating the team's fifth goal.
This is also Haaland's fourth goal.
Messi stood near the center circle with his hands on his hips, breathing heavily and spitting. He looked at his own half speechlessly, then turned his head and looked at the madness on the sidelines.
Haaland celebrates.
Around Haaland, Leeds United's young players were just leaning closer, with youth and passion written on everyone's faces.
I don’t know why, but at this moment, Messi suddenly remembered the scene when he was twenty years old.
At that time, European football still belonged to the era of Ronaldinho and Kaka.
The Brazilians at that time were the well-deserved kings, especially in Barcelona, where Ronaldinho was the focus of everyone's admiration.
Messi still clearly remembers that the big brother took special care of him back then. Not only did he take him with him during training, but he also took him with him when he played indoor football in his spare time. He even took him with him on the football field.
His first goal at that time was scored with the help of Ronaldinho.
He still remembers that day, May 1, Labor Day, 2005, when Barcelona's opponent was Athletic Bilbao.
That year, Messi had just made his debut. He hadn't even gone to the Netherlands to participate in the World Youth Championship. He was just an unknown player.
But Ronaldinho took great care of him. When he learned that the then head coach Rijkaard would arrange for Messi to play, he had been encouraging Messi and promised to help him score goals.
Athletic Bilbao is not a good team. Barcelona had a very difficult game.
Ronaldinho assisted Eto'o to score in the 66th minute.
Rijkaard did not fulfill his promise until the 88th minute and let Messi appear.
This is really not easy for a young boy.
After coming on the field, Ronaldinho pulled Messi and told him to wait just over there in the penalty area.
"I'll bring the ball to you. Remember, don't think about anything, just think about how to score a goal. Leave the rest to me!"
Messi still remembers this sentence.
In the 88th minute, he came on as a substitute and replaced Eto'o, the hero of the goal, leaving only a few minutes for Messi.
At that time, Messi's first thought was that this was impossible.
Who can guarantee that they will be able to create an excellent shooting opportunity for their teammates within a few minutes?
So, Messi just smiled and thanked him, but didn't take it to heart at all.
But what I didn’t expect was that it really came!
Ronaldinho dribbled the ball past the fierce defenders of Athletic Bilbao and sent it in front of Messi. The Argentine teenager was caught off guard and his shot was deflected.
At that time, Messi was completely stunned.
He never expected that Ronaldinho would do it.
At that moment, the Brazilian King was like a god!
But soon, Messi was deeply annoyed that he missed the great opportunity. He regretted why he didn't believe that Ronaldinho could do it?
But the Brazilian smiled and showed his iconic buck teeth. He patted Messi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. I'll get another one for you."
Messi was really stunned.
Can such an opportunity come up again?
Ronaldinho can create the first time, that is already considered a miracle, right?
After experiencing the first lesson, Athletic Bilbao has already been prepared. Now it wants to do it the second time?
Messi's reaction at the time was, this is absolutely impossible!
Even if Maradona is reincarnated, it will be impossible!
But in stoppage time, Ronaldinho actually created another opportunity for him, and this time the opportunity was even better than before. Messi calmly sent the ball into the goal.
So, he made history!
At that time, Messi was completely dizzy. He only felt that Ronaldinho and others were surrounding him, celebrating his goal crazily and reveling unscrupulously.
Even now, he still clearly remembers all the details of that night.
At this moment, watching the Leeds United players celebrating wildly, for some reason, he suddenly thought of Ronaldinho and that night.
He kind of wants to cry!
At that time, his situation in Barcelona was quite difficult because he was just a fledgling boy, but that goal made everyone remember Messi's name.
Because he set a record!
But now, his situation is still very difficult.
Barcelona's management, fans, and even teammates in the locker room...
Messi's situation at Barcelona is very bad, and he has even thought of leaving more than once.
At that time, when he needed it, his big brother Ronaldinho stepped forward and used the Brazilian's amazing skills to create a goal for him.
But now, he can only rely on himself!
Suddenly, he really envied these Leeds United players and really envied Haaland.
Seeing the Norwegian boy, he seemed to think of himself back then, when he was very young and full of energy.
But now, he is really old.
Others may not feel much about it, but Messi himself knows that he is really old.
His body, his movements, his physical ability, and even many of the skills that he used to be able to accomplish with ease are no longer possible and are far inferior to what they used to be.
But precisely because of this, he particularly envied Harland.
I’m really, really envious!
But soon, Messi gathered his emotions again.
He heard the boos from the stands at Camp Nou, and he heard the anger and dissatisfaction of Barcelona fans.
During the past period, under the deliberate guidance and even encouragement of some people, all the spearheads were pointed at him.
This makes Messi extremely angry!
He never felt that Barcelona's problems at this moment were caused by him alone, and he never felt that he should be responsible for Barcelona's current situation.
Because he really tried his best!
But why is everyone blaming him?
Could it be that it’s really time to leave?
He came to Barcelona when he was a child, struggled all the way from the youth training camp, climbed to the first team, and reached today. Could it be said that he is really leaving?
After leaving Barcelona, where can he go?
Messi suddenly became confused and full of melancholy.
He knew that his condition was not good, and he also knew that his situation was not ideal, but he had no good solution.
He can't change many things in Barcelona at all, nor can he change some of the management's will and behavior.
