Messi, if he keeps this up, may just cause us to almost forget El Dios De Futbol Argentina, Maradona. It was just a wonderful game over all for the Argentines. But watching Lionel play last night, it's hard to believe that he only just turned 20.

That said, I've got to bring up a complaint Sam brought up about World Soccer using the name Juan Veron on the cover a month or so back. While watching the game last night on Univision I noticed the announcers calling both Veron and Riquelme with their first name of Juan, so it's not just Europeans doing that, but Mexicans as well. (OK, Univision is the spanish US network, but the announcers are Mexican-American, if not Mexican.)
