Manchester United legend broke the news: Messi took down Garnacho! dissatisfied with the latter's call on Ronaldo as GOAT in the national team
On the evening of November 28, Beijing time, Manchester United's legendary central defender Rio Ferdinand revealed a shocking news in his blog program: Messi has taken down Garnacho, the younger of the Argentine national team, on social media, just because the latter said that Ronaldo was the GOAT when he was in the national team.
Ferdinand revealed this news in a conversation with the host of the show: "My friend told me that Messi shut down Garnacho, because Garnacho said that Ronaldo was the GOAT when he was in the Argentine national team, because he regarded Ronaldo as his idol, and Garnacho didn't care at all about being removed by Messi!"
Regarding the huge controversy that his words may cause, Ferdinand said: "Although I love Messi, Ronaldo is my GOAT. But if you're Argentine, you can't say that (Ronaldo is GOAT), you can't say Ronaldo is better (than Messi), and it was after that that Garnacho never made the Argentine national team again. ”
In Messi's latest list of players to follow, it is true that he did not pay attention to Garnacho, a junior of the national team, but it is not certain whether Messi has only recently taken the latter, or has never paid attention to Garnacho at all, and the latter is more likely at present. In the previous list of Argentina's World Preliminary Tournaments in November, Garnacho was not selected for the national team list. Coach Scaloni has also explained this, saying that Garnacho's current performance is not up to the national team's requirements.
Last weekend's Premier League fixture saw Manchester United beat Everton 3-0. And in that game, Garnacho scored a brilliant barbed goal in the opening three minutes that was enough to compete for the best goal of the season. After the goal, Garnacho was still in front of coach Ten Hag, and he did not shy away from making his idol Ronaldo's iconic "SIU" celebration, once again showing the unruly character of this talented teenager.
