WORLD CUP 2018 : LIONEL MESSI DIGS DEEP, DETONATES HAT-TRICK; SAVES ARGENTINA FROM DAMNATION !
Argentina had gone crazy.
They were on the verge of a national meltdown one moment, and in an ecstatic euphoria, the next.
Thanks to their national superhero Lionel Messi, Argentina had escaped by the skin of their teeth an unimaginable damnation for failing to qualify to the World Cup - - for the first time in nearly 50 years.
In a do-or-die face-off with Ecuador, Argentina froze in shock as Ecuador bury the first goal in lightning speed, just 37 seconds after the opening whistle.
But Super Messi stood up to the great challenge and saved his country with a magical hat-trick.
Great powers, come with great responsibility.
Says who?
Messi.
