Much easier to catch with the gloves the NFL players use. GK gloves aren't that easy to catch with. It's not hard, but a lot harder then the gloves that WRs use.
I think a strong case can be made that Arturo Vidal is the best player in the world. He is bossing the midfield and glued to Messi when he gets the ball. The guy works unbelievably hard.
Between him and Pogba, that is my favorite CM combo in the world currently.
But he had more cohesion with Messi than anyone else on the field. Banega offered next to nothing in both attack and defense, and Di Maria appears to be a lost cause for Argentina.
Messi has had spells of being poor from the spot, and Claudio Bravo has probably faced him a million times at Barcelona's practices.
Can you blame them? Although considering his first half mistakes, he's done a good job settling the match down.

I agree. This game was a nightmare to ref. The teams started out so out of control, the situation was crazy.
BAGGIO HAD CRAMPS! STOP TRIGGERING MY PTSD!!!!
Chile's annihilation of Mexico was a statement game. They're good.
Good for Chile. Argentina has too many dickbags to root for them.
The actual play in the Copa has been much better than the Euros to date. Although we are seeing the wheat separating from the chaff now in Europe.
